About NordPass
NordPass stores logins in an encrypted vault and fills them into websites and apps. The site says it encrypts user data on the device before the data leaves it, and it names the XChaCha20 algorithm for that encryption.
The site lists apps for iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and Linux, a web vault, and extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Edge. The free plan includes autofill and secure storage without multi-device access, and the site offers a 30-day Premium trial for personal use. The company is part of the Nord group, which also sells NordVPN.
