You can download a full-featured version of the app on pretty much any device you want across Android, iOS, Mac, PC, and Linux platforms. The only limitation with the free service is that you&#8217;ll have to choose only one device, as multiple devices require an upgrade to the Premium Plan, which currently costs a reasonable $2.50 per month based on a two-year plan.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">But <b>starting with one device is a great way to <\/b>t<b>ry out the service<\/b> without spending a penny.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>It&#8217;s also super secure<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">You might have heard of NordVPN, which is our top pick for a VPN (virtual private network) provider. One of the reasons we like the company so much is that it has <b>the best suite of online protections out of all competitors<\/b>. The same holds true for its password manager. Your data is encrypted by the cutting-edge <\/span><span class=\"s4\"><b>XChaCha20 encryption algorithm<\/b>. This encryption protocol is used by tech giants like Google to protect its data and it has yet to be cracked by a hacker \u2013 and likely never will be. Additionally, NordPass <a href=\"https:\/\/nordpass.com\/blog\/nordpass-security-audit-2020\/\"><span class=\"s2\">has just completed a comprehensive security assessment<\/span><\/a> from an outside agency and got top marks.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\"><b>So what&#8217;s new?<\/b>&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">NordPass has incorporated some winning features in the most recent release of the app.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-152263\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/c_scale,q_auto:good,w_700\/v1601658913\/editorial\/device-vault-phone-folders.webp\" alt=\"Screenshot\" width=\"700\" height=\"480\"><span class=\"s3\">You can now <b>store your personal data<\/b> in the app and then use it to <b>easily autofill any forms<\/b> that you come upon while surfing. It also allows you to <b>securely<\/b> <b>store your credit card details<\/b> so that if you find yourself without your wallet, you can still get at your digits. The password manager itself now incorporates <b>a biometric scanner<\/b> so that you can access your data using physical details like your fingerprint (or you can still use a master password); an OCR scanner to <b>allow the easy import of credit card information<\/b>; an <b>autosave<\/b> feature; and a vault in which you can save <b>secure notes<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">Perhaps most impressively of all, the app can now <b>import all your password details from your browser<\/b>, so there&#8217;s no need to start from scratch. And speaking of browsers, a new Safari extension joins those for Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Edge.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\"><b>Still to come<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">Those improvements to NordPass are impressive enough, but the company is not stopping there. In the coming months, users will get <b>3GB of free cloud storage<\/b> for keeping important documents, photos, and other files safe and shareable across devices. A <b>password health checker<\/b> will also be released that scans your current passwords and lets you know where there is room for improvement. And finally, a <b>data-breach scanner<\/b> will let you know if a site on which your data is stored has been hacked.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><div class=\"sc-card-starred-link\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-starred-link__img\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1601649549\/editorial\/NP-logo.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-title\">\r\n        <p class=\"sc-card-starred-link__title\">Download NordPass For Free!<\/p>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__button\" href=\"https:\/\/go.nordpass.io\/aff_c?offer_id=519&amp;aff_id=29822&amp;url_id=12084\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\">Get It Now<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.nordpass.io\/aff_c?offer_id=519&amp;aff_id=29822&amp;url_id=12084\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we first reviewed NordPass, we mentioned that compared to other password managers, it was pretty barebones, lacking a few of the bells and whistles that set other such programs apart.
