Dashlane suits households where the main risk is a family member typing a password into a fake site. Its vault phishing alerts appear when you try to autofill or paste login details on a suspicious site or an app not linked to the account. Premium also scans the dark web for your data, gives a Password Health score with steps to fix weak or reused passwords, stores IDs, driver's licenses and Wi-Fi details, and generates 2FA codes inside the app. A VPN for public Wi-Fi is included through a partnership with Hotspot Shield, and sync covers an unlimited number of devices. Dashlane notes that these features require a Premium or Friends & Family subscription. The price is the drawback: Dashlane Premium lists at $64.99 for one year in the US App Store, about $5.42 a month, the highest starting price here, and the personal page offers a 14-day trial rather than a free plan. Small teams should note that business pricing is not shown on the public page.
