I have a fingerprint scanner on all of my devices specifically for this reason. I am currently refusing to leave Bitwarden because it has this feature. I would love to fully switch over to Proton Pass.

Allowing biometric login on the "desktop" version of the Proton Pass app but not for the browser extension is backwards IMHO. The desktop app is limited in its usefulness whereas the browser extension is likely to be used much more frequently given that most people have a limited number of applications locally, but tens if not hundreds of credentials to be used on websites.

It's incredibly annoying and inefficient to have to enter a PIN every time Proton Pass locks instead of just being able to use my fingerprint on my Macbook.

Extremely important function as the most common place I use ProtonPass on my computer is through the internet browsers when accessing websites.

Hi Proton community!

Is here plane for allwo biomatric (s) To be "free" option for all accounts!
I hope proton well doi it
Thanks in advance!

It's critically important for me, and I used it while using Bitwarden.

crazy how this is not a feature yet. Please add it!

This is the only thing stopping me from switching fully from 1password, and the main reason I can't switch the rest of my family over.

Every other password manager has this, this is important for me but critical for UX in a time where passcodes and passwords are getting more and more replaced by better alternatives.

this is really important to create a secure and smooth UX

THIS IS CRITICAL.

Yes please do add this feature it would be very welcome

any update of this? While it's been a year since this important feature request has been raised? even free verion of bitwarden has this feature !!!

Please add this feature!!!

This is essential for security.

It is a security risk to not have biometrics available for the browser extension, as people next to you can see you type both your password or pin if you have auto lock on. Please make this available asap.

“I have your Unlimited Plan and it’s great, but one major issue that limits me from using the browser extension is that the extension doesn’t support biometric login with protonpass, and I have to type in my code. This is problematic because I’m in an environment with a lot of people coming and going, and I can’t type my code in such a situation. I kindly request that you add biometric login support to the browser extensions.”

I would love to have this feature as other direct competitors offer it. As a paid user this is something that really adds value.

This would be great!

Will you consider on a short term to make available the unlock with biometrics browsers extensions...like RoboForm does?

I really hope that the browser extension will support unlocking using biometric methods like Touch ID.
a. For example, Bitwarden solves this issue by communicating with the desktop app.
b. Elpass (https://elpass.app/), on the other hand, uses a different approach. The browser extension is merely used to trigger the desktop app and autofill content, while all operations are handled within the desktop app.

I prefer implementation b. because it ensures that the data on the local computer is stored in a single location, rather than having one copy in the desktop app and another in the extension (even if it’s encrypted). This also results in faster response times.
