About Kaspersky Password Manager

Kaspersky Password Manager protects all your passwords and other sensitive information (for example, passport details, and financial or medical records) with a single main password. You can install Kaspersky Password Manager on desktop computers, laptops, and mobile devices running Microsoft Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, or iPadOS to keep all your data safe and in sync.

Keep your passwords and other important information at your fingertips

Kaspersky Password Manager stores the following types of information:

  • Logins and passwords for websites and apps
  • Bank card details
  • Documents
  • Addresses
  • Text notes

For more information, see Data types protected by Kaspersky Password Manager.

Automatically fill out forms and sign in to websites

When you open a website that requires a login and password, Kaspersky Password Manager uses the stored website accounts to fill out forms or sign you in automatically. Learn more.

Protect your sensitive information

Kaspersky Password Manager stores all data in an encrypted format and only decrypts it when you enter your main password. Kaspersky Password Manager doesn't store your main password anywhere, and no one knows it except for you. There is no way to access your data without the main password—if you lose it, you will also lose access to your data. Learn more.

If your device is running Android 6.0 or later, supports fingerprint authentication, and has fingerprint authentication enabled in the app settings, you can use it to unlock your vault instead of entering the main password. Find more information about configuring and using fingerprint authentication in the Android Help.

Generate strong passwords

Use Password Generator to generate passwords that are unique, strong, and compliant with the highest security standards. Learn more.

Sync data across multiple devices

Keep your data up-to-date and consistent on all your devices and restore your data if you replace or lose a device. Learn more.

Manage your data online

Manage all your data on My Kaspersky and access it from any device connected to the internet. Learn more.

How Kaspersky Password Manager protects your data

Kaspersky Password Manager encrypts data using a symmetric key algorithm based on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). A key is derived from your main password using Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2 (PBKDF2).

The AES algorithm is used worldwide to protect top-secret data. This algorithm has low RAM requirements, which means your data is encrypted and decrypted within seconds.

Main password

The main password is a single password that Kaspersky Password Manager uses to protect all your data, including other passwords. You create the main password during the initial setup of Kaspersky Password Manager. Every time you try to access the data vault, Kaspersky Password Manager prompts you for the main password. If your device is running Android 6.0 or later, supports fingerprint authentication, and has fingerprint authentication enabled in the app settings, you can use it to unlock your vault instead of entering the main password.

It is recommended that you set a main password that is at least eight characters long and contains uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, and special characters.

For security reasons, Kaspersky Password Manager doesn't store the main password on any of your devices or in cloud storage. We recommend that you memorize your main password, or write it down and keep it in a secure place, because it can't be restored or recovered if forgotten.

If you forget your main password, you will no longer be able to access your data. In this case, you will have to create a new vault and protect it with a new main password. Then you will be able to add new data to the vault.

Data types protected by Kaspersky Password Manager

You can add several types of entries to Kaspersky Password Manager and organize your entries by moving them into folders.

Website, app, and other accounts

An account is a combination of a login and password required to authenticate a user on a website or in an app.

For websites, Kaspersky Password Manager saves the following information to the entry:

  • Website name. Use a meaningful website name to quickly find the website that you want to edit or log in to.
  • Website address. Kaspersky Password Manager uses this field to recognize a website's sign-in page and offer accounts you can use to sign in.
  • Accounts. You can save multiple accounts for a website. For example, you might have personal and business email addresses from the same email provider.

For apps, Kaspersky Password Manager saves the following information to the entry:

  • App name. Use a meaningful name so you can quickly find the entry you need.
  • Accounts. You can save multiple accounts for an app.

The Other account type is for all-purpose accounts. Here you can save any important code or password, for example your Wi-Fi password or door code. Kaspersky Password Manager saves the following information to the entry:

  • Entry name. Use a meaningful account name to quickly find the entry you need.
  • Login. Here you can save any important information.
  • Password. Enter or generate a password.
  • Comment. Add a meaningful entry description.

For quicker access, website accounts, app accounts, and other accounts are stored separately.

Bank cards

You can add bank card numbers, other details, PINs, and the card issuer's customer support contact information to Kaspersky Password Manager.

Addresses

You can save addresses, names, email addresses, and phone numbers in address entries.

Documents

You can store important documents (for example, scanned Passports/IDs and PDF files) in Kaspersky Password Manager to keep them safe and always close at hand.

Notes

You can use notes to store any kind of text information.

Notes are encrypted and stored the same way as other data types.

You can use the clipboard to copy and paste note text to a web page or application.

Data conversion when updating the app to version 9.0 or later from previous versions

If you update to Kaspersky Password Manager 9.0 or later from earlier versions, your web accounts, app accounts, and notes will remain unchanged. However, your identities will be converted to bank card, address, and note entries. If an identity contains a bank card without a number, Kaspersky Password Manager fills it out with zeros. Kaspersky Password Manager saves identity fields containing information other than bank card or address data (e.g. personal information, financial or business information) to new notes.

Beginning with Kaspersky Password Manager 9.0, the app is not compatible with previous versions of the app.

In Kaspersky Password Manager 9.0 or later, your data will be permanently converted to the new format. If you have a previous version of Kaspersky Password Manager on other devices connected to the same My Kaspersky account, you must update the app to version 9.0 or later to sync data across your devices and cloud storage. Alternatively, you can create a new My Kaspersky account to use with previous versions of the app.

[Topic 179046]

Update the app to version 9.2 or later

You must update the app to version 9.2 or later on all your devices connected to the same My Kaspersky account to correctly sync your data across devices and cloud storage.

The entry types and entry fields you can use may vary in different versions of Kaspersky Password Manager. For example, document categorization is available on desktop computers running macOS and Windows, but unavailable on mobile devices. When you update to Kaspersky Password Manager 9.2 or later, your vault database becomes more flexible. This improvement lets you connect different versions of the app to one My Kaspersky account, so you can use the same database with different versions of the app on your devices.

If your devices with different versions of Kaspersky Password Manager 9.2 or later are connected to the same My Kaspersky account, some entries or entry fields in your vault may be unavailable in the following cases:

  • You have added an entry of a new type, which is not supported in a previous version of the app.

    New-type entries are available only on devices with the recent versions of the app. On devices with previous versions, the app shows the number of new-type entries, which can't be displayed. When you use a previous version of the app and you switch from the premium version to the free version, you can choose to use all or none of these entries in the free version.

  • You have filled out a new field that is not supported in a previous version of the app.

    New field types are available only on devices with the latest version of the app. If you have entries with new field types, the previous version of the app warns you that some data in these entries cannot be displayed properly.

  • Some entry types are no longer supported in the latest version of the app.

    Kaspersky Password Manager describes these entries as old-type. You can only sync old-type entries between devices with previous versions of the app. When you update the app, Kaspersky Password Manager will save all your data from these entries. When you switch to the free version of the app, the old-type entries are displayed as active and automatically selected for use in the free version. Old-type entries are not counted against the limitations of the free version.

  • Some fields are no longer supported in the latest version of the app.

    Kaspersky Password Manager describes such fields as retired. Retired fields are synced between devices with the latest version as well as with previous versions of the app. You can edit retired fields only in previous versions of the app.

About two-step verification

Two-step verification may be unavailable in your region. For more details, see the My Kaspersky help.

Two-step verification prevents bad guys from signing in to your My Kaspersky account even if they know your password. To verify your identity, you will receive a unique security code in one of the following ways:

  • Via an SMS. We use the phone number you save on My Kaspersky. This means that both your password and your phone are needed to sign in to your account.
  • Via an authenticator app. You first need to set up two-step verification via your mobile phone number for the authenticator app feature to be available.

You can turn on two-step verification on My Kaspersky. If you change your phone number, you can update it on My Kaspersky. If you are already signed in to your account on a device, nothing will change for you. For detailed instructions, see the My Kaspersky help.

The security code is valid for a short period. If it expires, request another security code.

If you haven't received an SMS message with a security code

  1. Check whether your mobile network is available.
  2. Wait until the Request code again button becomes available in the app.
  3. Tap Request code again.

If the problem still persists, contact Customer Service.

About website accounts

A website account is a combination of a login and password required to authenticate a user on a website.

For websites, Kaspersky Password Manager saves the following information to the entry:

  • Website name. Use a meaningful website name to quickly find the website that you want to edit or log in to.
  • Website address. Kaspersky Password Manager uses this field to recognize a website's sign-in page and offer accounts you can use to sign in.
  • Accounts. You can save multiple accounts for a website. For example, you might have personal and business email addresses from the same email provider.

You can open websites from Kaspersky Password Manager in a supported browser and fill out the login and password fields using the Kaspersky Password Manager extension.

Kaspersky Password Manager can automatically fill in logins and passwords only on devices running Android 5.0 or later. To allow this you must turn on the accessibility features for Kaspersky Password Manager. If your device is running Android 6.0 or later, you must grant the necessary permissions. On certain devices (for example, Xiaomi), you might be prompted to do this on Android 5.0 or later.

You can add, edit, or remove website accounts and copy them to the clipboard. You can organize your entries by selecting them and moving them into a folder.

Password Check

Your accounts are at greater risk if they have the same or weak passwords (for example, qwerty, 12345) or passwords based on information that can be easily guessed or obtained (for example, names of relatives or dates of birth).

With Kaspersky Password Manager, you can quickly find out how strong your passwords are and whether the same passwords are used in multiple accounts.

Check for compromised passwords

For additional security, Kaspersky Password Manager checks whether your passwords have been hacked or leaked.

The app uses Secure Hash Algorithm 256 (SHA-256) to check for compromised passwords. The app generates SHA-256 message digests from each password in your vault and compares them with SHA-256 messages from a database of compromised passwords. If the SHA-256 messages match, the app warns you that your password is compromised and you should change it.

Kaspersky Password Manager only checks active entries for compromised passwords.

For each password stored for a website or app account, Kaspersky Password Manager displays:

  • Password strength: low, medium, or high.
  • Whether the password is compromised.
  • Number of accounts that share the same password.
  • List of websites or applications that have accounts with duplicate passwords.

Check the security of your passwords

  1. Unlock the vault by entering the main password and tapping Unlock.

    If your device is running Android 6.0 or later, supports fingerprint authentication, and has fingerprint authentication enabled in the app settings, you can use it to unlock your vault instead of entering the main password.

  2. In the main app window, tap or swipe the screen to the right.

    The quick access bar appears on the left.

  3. On the quick access bar, tap Password Check.
  4. Follow the instructions on the screen to turn on Password Check.

    After your turn on Password Check, the app will check your passwords automatically.

Generate a strong password

The security of your data largely depends on the strength of your password. A password is considered strong if it contains at least 16 characters, including uppercase and lowercase Latin letters, digits, and special characters. Kaspersky Password Manager generates unique and strong passwords. You can specify the password length and choose whether to include digits, letters and special characters. You can use Password Generator when you create a new website account or change your password for an existing account.

Generate a strong password

  1. Unlock the vault by entering the main password and tapping Unlock.

  2. In the main app window, tap or swipe the screen to the right.

    The quick access bar appears on the left.

  3. On the quick access bar, tap Password Generator.

    The Password generator window opens, and the app generates a password using the default parameters.

  4. Change the password parameters if needed:
    • Tap Password length to specify the number of characters to be used when generating passwords.
    • Clear the Uppercase letters (A–Z) checkbox, if you don't want to use uppercase letters during password generation. By default this checkbox is selected.
    • Clear the Lowercase letters (a–z) checkbox, if you don't want to use lowercase letters during password generation. By default this checkbox is selected.
    • Clear the Digits (0–9) checkbox, if you don't want to use numerals during password generation. By default this checkbox is selected.
    • Clear the checkbox next to the field with special characters, if you don't want to use special characters during password generation, or add or delete special characters in the field. By default this checkbox is selected.

    For your convenience, we have excluded the following similar symbols from password generation: 0 (zero), O (capital o), I (capital i) and l (small L).

    The app automatically generates a new password when the parameters are changed. If the strength of the generated password is medium or low, Kaspersky Password Manager notifies you below the password. Tap to generate a password again using the selected parameters.

  5. Tap Copy.

The app copies the generated password to the clipboard. You can manually paste the password into the required field.

Known issues

While using the app, take into account your device's specifics and follow the guidelines in the documentation for your device.

Kaspersky Password Manager has the following known issues:

  • The vault status icon might not be displayed in the notification bar on certain devices even though the corresponding setting is turned on.
  • On HTC devices, you can only enter the password into the password field in English using the standard keyboard. You can't change the language. To use the app on HTC devices, use a password that contains only symbols found in the English keyboard layout.
  • Setting up the app for the first time on a new device may take considerable time if the existing cloud storage is too big.
  • Changing the main password may take considerable time if the existing cloud storage is too big.
  • After the subscription expires, the app prompts the user to download images from the cloud storage to Kaspersky Password Manager. This may take considerable time if the user has selected a large number of images not previously downloaded.
  • Considerable time may be required to simultaneously add a large number of images to the cloud storage. If Kaspersky Password Manager stops responding, the sync will continue the next time the app is started.
  • Issues with autofilling logins and passwords in browsers:
    • If the app prompts to turn on accessibility features while the setting is already enabled, try to turn it off and then turn it on again. If the problem persists, restart the device or contact Customer Service.
    • On certain devices, logins and passwords may not be autofilled or may not be autofilled correctly in browsers. This may be due to specifics of the firmware. To resolve the issue:
      • On HUAWEI/HONOR devices, you can add Kaspersky Password Manager to the list of apps that are never stopped by the system when the device is blocked.
      • On Xiaomi devices, you can add Kaspersky Password Manager to the list of apps that are allowed to run in the background.
  • Kaspersky Safe Kids content filtering is not applied to websites that you open from Kaspersky Password Manager.
  • On Android Q devices, the app clears the clipboard regardless of where its contents came from.
  • On HUAWEI/HONOR devices, you must disable lock screen cleanup for Kaspersky Password Manager in order for the app to work properly. To do so, go to Settings > Battery > Close apps after screen lock (App launch) and turn the Kaspersky Password Manager switch to OFF.
  • If the Internet connection is lost while purchasing, the synchronization between the local Google Play database and cloud Google Play database fails. To resolve the issue, do the following:
    • Clear data for the Google Play Store app or reinstall Kaspersky Password Manager.
    • Restore your purchase.
  • On some Huawei devices running Android 8, the app may stop working unexpectedly or the autofill enabling button may not work. To resolve these issues, update your OS version to Android 9 or later.
  • In some cases the autofill feature may work incorrectly after you update the app.

    Resolve the issue

We would like to learn about your experience using our mobile products' new features and invite you to be a beta tester. The beta version includes new features you can try before they are officially released.

Be aware that beta versions may be less stable than the final version officially released to the public. You may encounter problems such as app crashes, features that do not work properly, or unavailable services.

The beta version is free of charge. However, the app's functionality may be limited (for instance, purchases could be unavailable). Please carefully read all of the beta version's terms and conditions in the End User License Agreement.

You must use the app only in accordance with the functionality provided by the installed version of the app. To view the list of beta versions you are using, go to Google Play and tap Profile > My apps & games > Beta.

Beta and subscriptions

We recommend that you register a separate My Kaspersky account to use exclusively for beta testing.

If you have already purchased a subscription, do not add activation codes to My Kaspersky account used only for beta testing. Otherwise, the app will automatically activate the subscription and your subscription will start expiring. See how to check subscriptions on My Kaspersky in the My Kaspersky help.

If you are already using the subscription, you can use features available on subscription in the beta version under the same subscription. Your subscription term will not be extended by the duration of beta testing.
