I want Proton Pass to be a standalone app with standalone login system.

By virtue of its function, Pass cannot be part of a suite with other Proton products, because it IS the gateway to all the said products.

For example, maybe you can give Pass its own login system, and then require users to use Pass to login to the remaining Proton products.

At some point, you need to find a way to not put all the eggs in same basket, otherwise the risk is too high.

Number one rule is not to use same password for several services, but here we are using it for Mail, Calender, VPN, and Password manager.

And to put some sugar on top, as a paid user I can have 15 emails in my mail that all can be used to log in!!!

no don't separate password to proton pass let the proton account handle it cause much more secure to log the proton pass with my encryption proton account don't use master password don't listen to stupid people they follow the other password manager=Proton pass is totally different on market and totally full secure compared to other password manager.

Greetings friends,

I consider this functionality critical as I keep my Proton credentials securely stored in my current password manager. Optional separate credentials, in whatever form deemed appropriate and secure, would allow me to keep my primary Proton credentials secured in Proton Pass. Having this feature for other applications could also be beneficial. I am patiently waiting for a solution to this issue so that I can switch to Proton Pass. Thank you all for the hard work.

This is one of the features i miss the most after coming from dashlane. I dont use a 6 digit pin code anywhere else, and im used to using my master password to login

This is critical, and a separate password should be applied for ProtonVPN as well

Hi, can you please consider adding this? I also think it's critical.

I don't want this just for security purposes, you added logout after 3 attempts which is nice but still worse than using the password.

I also want this because I need to enter my password on a regular basis to not forget it and I don't want to enter wrong pins 3 times to log myself out to do that.

Having PIN access everywhere is a very bad idea. Could you please just add a radio selector or dropdown to select which method to use after auto-lock?

The main Proton account should manage VPN and PASS accounts, but not to be used to sign in. It is very insecure.

ProtonVPN is the same!

Simple password with/or TOTP/HOTP would be enough. I do not want to enter my main account credentials on a system I do not fully trust.

I want to switch to Proton Pass but not until this is implemented. I'm patiently waiting.

I'm new to Proton's services & I agree with the OP & other comments!

I use strong passwords for all my accounts along with 2FA for my more important things. (Like Proton services.) Having to use a password manager (Keepass/Keepass2Android) to open a password manager is just, well, annoying!!

I would use Proton Pass exclusively but for this issue. I'd simply continue to use the password I use for Keepass/Keepass2Android for simplicity. I do change it from time to time, just to be safe but unlike the current method with Proton Pass its not a 32bit+ (Minimum) password with multiple capitalized/non-capitalized letters+numbers+symbols+special etc etc.

Please implement an option, so if people want to keep it the way it is now they can, but for those of use who want to use just a password we have the option available.

Thank you.

I just want to let everyone know that this is the only thing keeping me from switching from Bitwarden.

I agree this is critical to have as well! Furthermore, there should be the option to use MFA every time to open Proton Pass, including the use of security keys like Yubico.

I have a similar requirement.

It would be nice if ProtonPass could be unlinked from the Proton account. Own login credentials/master password for Pass and only the licence is made available via Proton/SimpleLogin. This ensures that there is no access to the vault if the Proton account has been taken over (e.g. by accessing session cookies).

Thanks for the feedback! For now users are logged out after 3 failed PIN attempts to protect against brute force attacks.

I'm using Bitwarden for a password manager until a separate password can be used for proton pass.

I don't know my password for my proton account, and I don't want to.

I have a very strong password for my Bitwarden account, with MFA.

I'd love to be able to use Proton Pass, please implement this.

This needs to be implemented to make Proton Pass safe to use. My password for Proton apps is not one I can remember, therefore I need a separate password (the master password that I do remember) for Proton Pass to open the rest.

I have family members also using Proton Apps that will not be using Proton Pass until this is implemented.

Definitely - I've actually been using Proton Pass now since release and having an option to add an additional master password would be perfect.

I get the convenient idea that a single password to access all services such as how Microsoft works but for a password manager, it needs an extra layer to isolate it from an account being compromised.

I wanna have account password + Proton Pass master password. This will look more secure than now

Bitwarden, for example, already requests the master password when FaceID fails. ProtonPass should follow the some approach.
