protonpass is available for a few weeks now and i really enjoy using it on my mobile devices and on firefox. there is no “official” app for mac and desktop safari yet (proton claims that they have to heavily rewrite the extension to make it work with safari) so i installed the ipad version on my m1 mini and it works - in a way. if you want to use it, you can just open it and c/p the logins you need into safari, but you can also enable it with autofill for safari in the mac password settings - but beware, this is still kinda buggy!

so, in case you don’t want to wait for a “proper” safari extention, you can try this workaround! have fun!

ps.: please no browser flamewar

yooooo thanks for this tip! my only issue with proton pass is that if i click away from firefox, the extension fades away. this is a great workaround for that until they polish the extension a little more :)

you’re welcome! i had a similar thought when i looked up the pw of a service i haven’t used in some time and scrolled throug the iphone app and then it clicked, that most ipad apps work pretty fine on M1/2 macs and theres that.
