Moving on from Passwords Plus

A few things to note about moving your Passwords Plus data to another app:

1. You will need to export your data from either Passwords Plus Mac or Windows.  It can’t be done directly from Passwords Plus iOS or Android. If you only have Passwords Plus iOS or Android, refer here for instructions on what to do.

2. Once your data is exported, it will not be encrypted so make sure to delete the exported file once you’re done importing into a new app.

3. Once exported your data will be in a CSV (comma separated values) format. This format can be imported into any app that will import this type of data HOWEVER,  the import may not automatically look like you expect it to and can require cleanup.

*If you choose to move to mSecure, it should go in cleanly and require minimal cleanup as we have worked with the company that make mSecure to ensure this.

Why mSecure?

  3. It has an “importer” specially designed to make the move from Passwords Plus painless.
