Exporting your data from Passwords Plus

In order to move into another password manager, you must first get your data OUT of Passwords Plus. Once you do that, you can decide where to move it. 

Note: Once you export to a CSV file that file is no longer encrypted and can be opened without a password. Once the file is imported into a new password manager, remember to delete the CSV file.

If you currently have Passwords Plus only on iOS or Android

There is no way to export from the phone apps.  So you will need to download either the Mac or Windows versions onto a PC and log into your sync account. Once you do that, see above for how to export from a Mac or PC.

Click here for instructions on installing Passwords Plus on a Mac or PC.

Once you have installed on the Mac or PC you need to log into your Sync account.  Here’s how:

  1. Find your Sync settings on your phone app in Passwords Plus/Settings/Sync Settings
  2. Sync settings consist of an email address and a 10 digit Sync ID. You will need both of these in order to log into Passwords Plus on a computer. Note that the email address in your sync ID is case sensitive so it must be typed in the same way it is shown in the Sync settings section of whatever version of Passwords Plus you are using.  Click here to find your Sync ID if you don’t have your phone handy (Note: You must have the correct email address – meaning the one you used when you first set up your account)

Once your data is exported, you are ready to import it into mSecure or another password manager.
