Control Autofill settings in the extension
In a future release, you’ll be able to customize how Autofill works by turning off Autofill for forms and logins.
If you use Safari as your browser: Dashlane now uses macOS native autofill for the web app in Safari. For a better autofill experience, you must set up the alternative autofill solution. This solution lets Dashlane autofill your usernames and passwords but not other fields, like your address, phone number, or payment information. To autofill all types of data, you must use Dashlane in another supported browser.
Learn more about the alternative autofill solution
If you don't want Dashlane to autofill certain websites, you can turn off Autofill for those websites in the extension. If you use Safari as your browser, you can't turn Autofill on or off.
Autofill settings aren't synced to mobile.
- Go to the page or website where you want to turn off Autofill.
- Select the Dashlane D in your browser toolbar.
- In the extension pop-up, select Autofill in the top menu to open the website's Autofill settings.
- Select Pause. In the next pop-up, you're informed that suggestions to save and generate passwords will also be turned off.
- Select Turn off to confirm and refresh your browser.
If you've turned off Autofill for a website and Dashlane still autofills that website, try clearing the browser cache and cookies.
If you want to resume Autofill, select Resume and refresh your browser.
Generate passwords in the extension
In the extension, select Generator in the top menu and create strong passwords automatically.
Copy and use the password to update your logins and increase security. You can choose the length of the password and whether to include letters, numbers, or symbols. You can also choose not to include characters that resemble each other, like "1" and "l".
To generate a new password, select the circling arrows icon next to the current password.
Select Show history to find your last 20 generated passwords. You can see if the password was generated for a specific site as you were browsing the web. If you used the Password Generator to create the password, you'll see Generated and the date.

Note: If you’re a member of a Starter, Team, or Business plan, each custom category is tied to the Space where you created the category. If you created a custom category in your Personal Space, that category won't appear in your Business Space in the existing categories list.

At this time, you can't make edits or delete custom categories from the list. You can only remove categories that you don't want from each login. For example, if you create a custom category with a misspelling, remove the category from each login where it appears. The category remains in the list.

When you go to gravatar.com, you’re asked to create an account or log in to WordPress.com. Gravatar and other services use WordPress so that you can use the same login for several services.
Note: Make sure you use the same email address you use to log in to Dashlane to create your Gravatar account. If you see a profile picture, you already have a WordPress account with a profile picture.
After you’ve created or logged in to your account, you can add or change your profile picture on the Manage Gravatars page. Your new profile picture appears in Dashlane after a few minutes.
