Unlock through hardware / security key (e.g. yubikey)
In addition to unlock our vault through a 6 digit pin, it would be nice to be able to unlock it through physical security keys.
The current 6 digit cap as well as the divided input field (2x3 digits) make it impossible to utilize such a security key when configured to output a static password.

It would be great if Proton offered a competitor to the Yubikey in addition to supporting them.

KeePassXC has this, though if this can be done without using any "slots" (like the HMAC challenge-response thing KeePassXC uses) that would be great.

One missing feature, that blocks me completely migrating my current password manager to Proton Pass.

Would be great if unlocking could be done with FIDO2 compliant security keys. This could help combat the circular dependency of needing to log into your password vault, but the password to the vault is secured in the vault...

I literally made a "uservoice" acc just to ask/propose a fix to this
How can it be that the password manager stays unlocked in my browser?!
A pin doesn't give me enough peace of mind for protecting my password manager! that's nuts, nowadays our lives are basically stored in there
atm my mane is still 1Password (fingerprint on smartphone and ipad, still scared of keyloggers on laptop), would like to make a full switch, but don't like to always tipe the code in, for convenience but especially for security reasons!
please resolve asap thanks -

The first time I opened the extension after a system reboot I nearly had a heart attack that somehow I was still completely logged in. Please let us unlock it with a physical key!

Yes - just a PIN to unlock the browser extensions is too unsecure! Physical security key or with OTP is very important.

Please, add passkeys support with mandatory PIN! Urgent!!!! Detach everything from Proton Mail as well

This is critical! I am seriously considering returning to bitwarden due to lack of this feature. Worse, its got rudimentary implementation for proton SSO but not a core functionality of proton pass!

For a product who wants to push security and privacy, this functionality seems unavoidable to me.
I'm a user of KeepassXC and it supports Yubikey, the Keepass2Android app also supports this on Android.
This is the only lack that prevents me from migrating to ProtonPass -

The ability to use yubikey as 2fa to log in to (not unlock) proton pass mobile apps (ios and android) would be excellent. (Bitwarden support this.)

I wish Proton would let me use physical keys to access all Proton IOS apps. If we are forced to use authentication codes, how can I stop using Bitwarden? I currently store all of my keys in Bitwarden and login to Bitwarden using my physical key. I can’t store my keys in Proton Pass and still login to Pass!!!

II too would like this. If it can be a feature on Bitwarden, then it can be done here.

This is a great use case for a physical key - it keeps your vault unlocked until the X-minute timeout before you need to use it again.

Been a premium user of bitwarden for a few years now and considering the switch BUT I really dont like the lack of no AUTO LOG-OUT option for the app and browser addon like Bitwarden has. Proton instead only offers a LOCK.
In bitwarden settings on app and browser addon you can set the program to LOCK (require a code) or LOGOUT (require password + your 2FA) at a specific time interval (instant, 1min, 5min, 10min, 1hr etc)
I much prefer LOGOUT so that the account is secure and requires a password + my 2FA(yubikey) to get back in. It feels much more secure to have the vaults logged-out than just locked with a simple passkey!
A device restart on phone or pc and the protonpass app / browser addon stays LIVE and LOGGED IN. I feel like this is a disaster waiting to happen.
Add an account AUTO LOG OUT feature!

This is a feature that I really need to be able to start using Proton Pass!
