About app accounts

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

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.

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