Do you lose the overview in the password forest? With a free password manager like Nordpass you no longer have to remember all your passwords.

As long as a user -friendly, password registration is not available everywhere, we will continue to use passwords. The same password is unsafe everywhere, but another is impractical everywhere.

You solve this with a password manager. Think of it as a digital safe, encrypted with one strong main password, in which your registration data and possibly other sensitive information are stored safely.

We introduce you here Nordpass, because it is free (with limitations), user -friendly, Dutch -speaking and available for desktop browsers and mobile devices. Moreover, it synchronizes smoothly between devices. First we show how you use this on your desktop and in a browser like Chrome, then we discuss the mobile version.
