Dashlane is First Password Manager to Support Google Android M Fingerprint, Offers Easy Password Access on Android


NEW YORK, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Dashlane, the world's leading password manager, integrates two new APIs from Android M Developer Preview to offer users automatic login with Android.

Dashlane users can now use their fingerprint to access and use all of their stored passwords, without ever typing a password.

The new Fingerprint and Confirm Credential APIs will improve the Dashlane Android experience by allowing users to quickly authenticte and access secured data within Dashlane. The news comes as Google announces Android M Developer Preview at their annual developer conference, Google I/O. The new platform release version will allow our developers to use standardized fingerprint sensors to accelerate login functionality within Dashlane's Android app.



  • Dashlane Fingerprint Login Users can unlock Dashlane using their fingerprint, which provides an easy way to access their passwords securely.
  • Secure Data Access Once in the app they can now use their fingerprint to unlock any sensitive data that is stored in Dashlane, such as payments and personal contact information.

Emmanuel Schalit, Dashlane CEO, states:

Dashlane's integration of Android's new API shows that convenience and security don't have to be mutually exclusive. Our usage of fingerprint authentication technology gives consumers a win-win scenario; they get the speed and ease of use they desire, but don't sacrifice their security.


This is a positive development for both the security and mobile industries. It also brings Dashlane yet another step closer towards becoming a universal identity solution for consumers across all of their devices. We look forward to delivering this great feature in our beautiful new Material Design Android app.

The Google integration is the latest in a string of powerful features Dashlane delivered to users in the past ten months:
