Using Dashlane on your computer works best when you download the Dashlane Smart Extension. An extension—also called a plug-in—is a small program that adds features to your browser. We recommend pinning the extension to your browser toolbar to find it easily.
Note: You can use the Dashlane Smart Extension in most browsers on your computer but not on mobile devices. The browser DuckDuckGo doesn't currently support extensions. So you can't use the Dashlane extension with DuckDuckGo. If you want to use Dashlane on a phone or tablet, install the Dashlane mobile app.
