Maybe they will give SimpleLogin some more attention. It’s very buggy.
How so?
Folders will be available in the coming months. As well as creating vaults, you’ll be able to create dedicated folders and subfolders to organize crucial information for quick retrieval: you can organize by project, by team, by year, or whatever else you need
This is pretty huge from a usability POV. Vaults are the only way to group aliases & logins at present. I find UX when managing multiple vaults to be… underwhelming
Well, a man can dream ![]()
If you’re planning on using Simpelogin, I suggest doing that via Proton Pass because notes section for each alias is not E2EE but only in Proton Pass. If you write anything about the website for which you made the alias or anything in the notes, it’s only encrypted at rest in SL and not E2EE.
Something to keep in mind.
I’m an addy.io user but have an old sl account with a couple of aliases. I had to use one today and was shocked to see sl hasn’t been updated for nearly 2 years, presumably all the development effort goes into proton pass. Addy looks much the superior product nowadays and its rock solid.
OH. I actually didn’t know that. Thanks for the info.
It has been more than 3 years. The autofill is bugged. The app legit asks you to not use capital letters while creating an alias… I mean can’t they just replace it with small letters internally?
I hope proton doesn’t let the service just die like this. At least give a little bit of care. I actually hate Proton for these reasons. They buy companies to kill them. I know they are building Pass but still. Atleast one new PR in 2 years… i mean just ask claude to design a new website at this point. It’s infuriating dealing with the current website and extension every day.
As for addy, I actually tried self hosting it. It’s a million miles ahead of SL in UI and feature set is ever growing. I like the new feature posts I see on their Subreddit almost every other week. Unbelievable how much one passionate guy can achieve compared to a billion$ company. Kudos to the developer.
This is great to see. Proton has been on a tear the last 12 months or so.
At least as an iOS/MacOS user, I know the Linux bros need some attention.
Folders will be a significant building block for Proton Pass that will go beyond just helping you organize your items.
I’m not sure I understand how folders will be that different from vaults.
Also, will folders be the parent of vaults or vice versa?
To speed up your browsing, biometric unlock is coming to the Proton Pass extension . It’ll be available for macOS and Chromium first, with other browsers and OS released gradually.
I’m not a fan of releasing gradually features to certain platforms or geographic regions first. I like feature parity. We should all get it at the same time. But I guess them’s the brakes.
Do even more with your Proton Pass browser extension
I didn’t get the announcement that I hoped in this section.
The primary way that I interact with Proton Pass is via their desktop app. Hence, I want to see the browser extensions synced to the desktop app like 1Password. It saves time from having to enter your password multiple times a day in different browsers, as I use multiple browsers simultaneously. This is a feature that 1Password has that I love. It doesn’t have to be forced on people, it can be opt-in or opt-out.
Other features I would like to see is more UI & UX customizability with fields. I want to be able to create different sections and be able to move fields and sections around, exactly like 1Password.
With 1Password increasing their price with not significant updates, and many unaddressed bugs, I hope to leave it for Proton Pass before my subcription expires.
You should share your asks on Proton’s UserVoice platform where they take feedback.
Yes. I will do that.
