![]() Because this post is getting too long, I will post a separate one about 2FA. Authenticator – it can act the same as Google Authenticator app if you set up 2FA or two-factor authentication or 2-step verification (whatever you call it).It gives a quick glance of your overall account security. Identity dashboard shows the status of your passwords, whether they are used several times or if it is secured enough.I tried it and since most confirmation emails don’t really contain passwords, I ended up skipping them. It has an inbox scanner, that will check your emails for newly registered accounts.The app is available almost in any device: iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Chrome.They don’t have a family plan but you can share passwords to anyone and add emergency contacts that can access your details in case (of course) of emergency.There are also IDs that don’t expire so I guess it would be better if there’s an option for non-expiring IDs. In my opinion, it would be better if there’s an option to change the ID Type or name what kind of ID it is that you’re entering. It only asks for my name, ID number, issued date, and expiry date. I was able to save my SSS and TAX ID numbers but when it comes to other types of IDs like (let’s say) School ID, Company ID and so on the details are not customizable. I think it would be best if we can filter with matching sites and email. If I enter my email all sites with that email will show up and vice versa. For example, I’m under Google, after I delete an account it will go back to the letter ‘A’.Īnd when I search it will only search either email or site. I was trying to filter out duplicates and each time I delete something on the desktop app it will go back to the main view of the passwords. I had to manually delete them and it took some time to do all of it since it didn’t just happen with Google accounts. I have 8 Google accounts, but on DashLane I had almost 30. However, it would’ve been nice if it will consolidate all accounts related to a root domain. I think there is a reason why they don’t consolidate duplicate accounts. What I’m about to say is something that I think they missed. ![]() Now let’s talk about what I did DashLane missed Unlimited devices and unlimited sharing of passwords. Of course, when you use premium, you are able to store unlimited passwords, perfect for someone like me. If you encounter that just uninstall the VPN and set it up again if you need it. And I think I am experiencing a bug, where it’s hard to disconnect DashLane’s VPN. My baby no longer asks me to skip the ad because YouTube Premium removes them.īut as expected VPN can slow down the internet. But by using a VPN, I can change the country to the USA. I have a YouTube premium account that is always active and I’m not being able to use it because it isn’t available in the Philippines. ![]() I’m actually having fun using this despite of limited use. To my surprise, the app subscription when done on iOS is just 49PHP a year! While on the android devices it is 88PHP per month. I checked the reviews and it seemed to have a very good reputation everywhere. It caught my attention because I have that app on my laptop before but I uninstalled it. One familiar app came up and that is the Dashlane APP! It is a paid app so I have to look for a free or cheaper version of it. Going back with my storytelling…Īfter I seeing the article, I checked all apps on the app store that is similar to 1Password. Later on this post, I’ll also share how to make use of the DashLane app for this matter. So it’s important to be careful with your accounts. And as customer care rep, we can’t do anything AT ALL to recover it. Their problem is when they got their phone stolen, they can no longer access their accounts because it requires them to enter code that is sent to their phone. I used to work in a call center that handles Google customers and most of their issue is about the 2-step verification. I loved doing that but for someone who changes phone numbers from time to time, having it enabled wasn’t really a good idea. The only way to really prevent my self from being hacked is to at least enable two-factor authentication/ 2FA / 2-step verification. It doesn’t have the numbers or symbols but it was so alarming. It was somehow believable because they stated my MAIN EMAIL and my MAIN PASSPHRASE. ![]() I use only two passwords and I just change the numbers and symbols on it when I need to.Ī few months ago, or maybe last year, I received a threatening email saying that they have my personal information. I got super curious about it and I know for a fact that all my accounts are vulnerable. Yesterday, there’s a blog post I’ve read about 1Password app talking about how to secure and protect your data and passwords using a single app. ![]()
