Proton Pass
An end-to-end encrypted password manager with a free plan, from the makers of Proton Mail.
Instead of Google Password Manager

Proton Pass comes from Proton AG in Geneva, the company behind Proton Mail. It says it uses zero-knowledge, end-to-end encryption, so not even Proton can read what you store. The free plan has unlimited logins and devices, passkey support and 10 hide-my-email aliases, and Pass Plus costs $2.99 a month billed yearly and adds unlimited aliases, a built-in authenticator and file attachments.
The Android and iOS apps are on GitHub under GPL-3.0, and Proton says Pass is open source, though we could not confirm which parts. It is one company's service, so a change at Proton changes your vault, and we found how to import from other managers but not how to export from Proton Pass, which is why Lock-in is only a 3. If you want your passwords in a file you own, KeePassXC is the better fit.
- Zero-knowledge encryption, so Proton says it can't read your passwords
- The free plan has unlimited logins and devices, plus passkeys
