Import your passwords

Bring your logins over from your old password manager or browser in a few minutes. Your passwords are read and encrypted on your device and never reach us unencrypted.

How it works

  1. Install AdPass in your browser and turn on passwords.
  2. Open Settings › Vault › Import passwords, or Import in the popup’s Passwords tab.
  3. Pick the app you’re moving from and follow its steps below to export your passwords.
  4. Choose the export file. AdPass reads it on your device, shows you what it found and what it skips, and saves nothing until you say so.
  5. Delete the export file. It holds your passwords in plain text. AdPass reminds you at the end.

During the beta

Try it with a test export or a few logins first, and keep your passwords in your current app too while the beta runs. How we protect your vault.

Another app

CSV or Credential Exchange

  1. In your current password manager, look for Export in its settings.

AdPass backup

Restore a .adpass file

  1. Find the .adpass file you saved from Settings › Export.
  2. Have its Backup Code ready. It starts with B1 and was shown when you made the backup.
  3. Choose the file in AdPass. It asks for the code, then shows what’s in the backup before saving anything.
