Auto / Bulk change passwords on websites with generated passwords.
This is a super lofty request but would absolutely crush competition. Allow an end-user to "bulk" change passwords with proton pass's auto generated passcodes (more secure). It would trigger a request to each of the unique domains and (magically) go through their password reset process and change it to the newly generated passcode. If it "fails", just report back a "fail" and those passcodes can be changed manually. It would be amazing to be able to update all passwords simultaneously as part of a routine security measure.

Dashlane already had this as a feature for certain websites. Not a bad feature to use

It would be extremely useful if Proton Pass supported variables for entry fields. Many users have multiple entries for the same website (for example, different accounts or roles). When a website changes its login URL or another important detail, we currently have to update every entry manually.
With variables, we could define a value (like a login URL) once and reference it in multiple entries. If the website changes its address, we would only need to update the variable, and all linked entries would update automatically. This should work not only for URLs but for any field (username, notes, etc.).
Example use case:
I have around a dozen different accounts for the same website, each stored as a separate entry in Proton Pass. If the website changes its login address, I have to manually update the URL in every single entry. With variables, I could set the login URL as a variable and use it in all relevant entries. When the URL changes, I would only need to update the variable, and all entries would be updated instantly. This would also be helpful for other fields that might change across multiple entries, such as usernames or notes.Benefits:
- Saves time when updating shared information across entries
- Reduces risk of outdated or inconsistent data
- Makes managing multiple accounts for the same service much easier -

Re: Sorting and Mass Changes
Currently there is no way to sort on or filter by or make mass replacements/changes to the "Forwards To" field information.
I am asking that this ability be added.

There’s no way that can work. To change your passwords, you have to visit each individual website and change that password.
So, if you have any weak passwords, I would get to work. They aren’t going to change themselves.

Dear ProtonMail Team
I am a loyal user of ProtonPass, and I would like to suggest a feature that could greatly enhance the password management experience. Currently, I have 313 weak passwords stored in ProtonPass, and I would love to see an option that allows users to automatically update all weak passwords at once, without having to manually go through each one individually.
This feature would save time and help ensure better security for users who need to strengthen their password management, especially when handling multiple weak passwords.
Thank you for considering this feature, and I look forward to any updates!
Best regards

Develop a feature in Proton Pass that, once the user is logged in with the master password, allows the automatic change of all the passwords stored in Proton Pass (for this user) and update these passwords automatically to the corresponding sites and apps. This would require, of course, the development of a protocol or agreement to be used by proton pass and all the others sites to make the implementation of this feature possible. This feature would allow for greater security, since it would be easy for the user to change all the passwords once in a while to protect all his/her accounts. Sincerely, Laerte

Another provider called Cloaked has this feature in beta, would be amazing to get this as I have many repeated passwords that should change. This would be helpful if it was related to the new dashboard that is planned, where if it detects a breach for an account, it will offer to auto-change the password. Maybe even have a setting where it could automatically do it without user verification. Would be great to also offer to auto-add 2FA to the website.
