Using PM on public computers

I had been saving all of my passwords in my Google account so that I could sign in to any computer and get to my passwords. How can I do that with BDPM? Do I have to install the extension on any computer I want to use it on...work computer, library...I am not sure how to go about using it anywhere except on my home computer and my phone

Is this only meant to autofill and keep passwords safe on my OWN computers?

    Hi@Itsme510

    Here is an article on installing Password Manager on your personal, private devices. I would NOT install the extension on anything else, other than your personal devices. Your own personal work computer could be fine, as long as you make sure to log out of PM after you're done, or do not check the Remember me box, so once you close out of your browser, you'll be logged off. Again, for your security's sake in that environment.



    As of now, there is no ability to sign into our Central account to view Password Manager from there, as has been suggested here:


    I didn't mean to sound harsh. but protection of our online security is paramount in this day and age.

    Kind regards,

    Scott

    Thanks Scott. I guess this product is not what I thought it was. It seems that it only autofills and remembers passwords if I am on my own personal devices. Not like saving in Google where I can log in on any computer and get the passwords that I have saved in my google account. I am not sure what the purpose of this product is if it only helps remember passwords on home computers and personal phones...

    You're welcome :)

    Yes, Password Manager is an app-based password manager, linked to your Central Account, compared to Google being browser based as you're logged into your Google account.
