How to use the Dashlane web app and extension

The Dashlane web app and extension allow you to autofill your passwords and manage your data, much the same way you do with our desktop apps.

With the web app, you can access Dashlane directly in the browser extension, and open our web app interface to access more features.

Note that the web app is available on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. It can also be used on any Chromium-based browser such as Brave or Opera. For more general information about the web app, including instructions on how to install and set it up in your browser, please see here.

Managing your passwords

Your password Vault is where you can manage your passwords.

To open it, click on the Dashlane icon in your browser. There you can:

• Browse or search your credentials using the search bar at the top
• Sort your credentials either by name, or by "Last used" to show the last used credentials at the top of the list for easy access. To select a different sorting method, just click the current method at the top of the credential list.
• View credential details by clicking the credential in the list
• Edit credentials by clicking the pencil icon that is located at the top left of the credential details view. This will take you to the web app.
• Show passwords by clicking the eye icon in the credential details view
• Access the website corresponding to a specific credential by clicking the Go to website icon (see the image below) that appears when hovering over the entry in the list, or by clicking the same icon that appears when hovering over the website address in the credential details view
• Copy passwords, logins or emails by clicking the corresponding Copy info icon (see the image below) that appears when hovering over the entry in the list, or by clicking the copy button that appears when hovering over the login/email and password in the credential details view

The This website tab allows you to:

• View the different credentials saved in Dashlane for the website you are currently visiting

How to access the web app and manage your Dashlane account

Though most of the key features of Dashlane are available directly by clicking on the Dashlane icon in your browser, the web app interface allows you to perform a wider set of actions.

How to access the web app

There are currently four different ways of accessing the web app.

1. The first and the most direct way is to go to https://app.dashlane.com/login, once your extension is installed and properly set up. Note that this url is still accessible if the extension is not set up but it will open a version of the web app that has fewer features and does not allow autofill.
2. Log in to Dashlane in the extension and click on the Open the web app button at the bottom of the window.
   
3. Log in to Dashlane in the extension and click on the three dots icon at the top-right of the window and click Open the app.
   
4. The last way is when you're editing a credential. In the Vault tab of the extension, click the credential and then click the pencil icon at the top left of the window. This will take you to the web app and show this credential's details.
