### 1/5 — Could be better

*2026-02-24, version 3.0.01*

More often than not, it just won’t open. It starts to open the, crashes. 
Takes a large amount of time to update as well.

### 1/5 — Constant Freezing

*2026-02-18, version 2.9.51*

App consistently freezes on open, then closes. Have to delete and re install constantly.

### 1/5 — Rarely works

*2026-02-15, version 2.9.51*

App continually fails to load.  Reinstall app.  Happens again a week later.

### 1/5 — Lässt sich nicht öffnen

*2026-02-06, version 2.9.51*

Funktioniert nicht….

### 1/5 — Sometime good sometimes bad

*2026-02-05, version 2.9.51*

Sometimes works sometimes doesn’t.  Needed articles and other client data while on site and within the app there are zero articles, knowing back at the office on the Passportal desktop software there’s 20+.  Uninstalling doesn’t work, resetting the app doesn’t work, thus 2 stars at max.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-01-23, version 2.9.51*

App won’t even open, just crash and crash

### 1/5 — Keine Funktion mit iOS 26.2

*2026-01-10, version 2.8.01*

Bitte dringendes Update

### 1/5 — Requires frequent reinstall

*2025-12-20, version 2.8.01*

This app constantly loses its settings or data and requires me to completely remove, reinstall and re setup the app. Support is unable to address the issue, they just expect me to keep working like this.

### 1/5 — Utterly useless

*2025-12-11, version 2.8.01*

App wont open. When it did it took hours to load. Multiple crash loops. This is the definition of crapware.

### 1/5 — Stürzt ständig ab und man kommt ständig nicht an die Passwörter

*2025-11-18, version 2.8.01*

Eigentlich wollte ich meine Bewertung hoch setzen. Nach 5 Jahren funktionierte die App endlich mal und zeigte tatsächlich alle Passwörter an ohne abzustürzen. 
Aber ein iOS Update vor 3 Tagen und schon geht sie gar nicht mehr auf. Heute konnte man generell den halben Tag nicht auf seine Passwörter zugreifen! Ein Cloudflare-Problem. Aber die Rechnungen gehen wirklich immer. Da wird die ganze Entwicklungsabteilung dran gesetzt. Da gab es wirklich noch nie Probleme!

Alte Rezension:
Ständig zeigt sie keine Passwörter. Manuelles aktualisieren führt zum Absturz der App. Nach mehr als 5 Jahren werde ich mich nun nach anderen Anbietern, auch im Bereich RMM, etc. bemühen. Zuverlässig kommen neue Features aber nur gegen Aufpreis, der das jeweilige Feature nicht wert ist und die regelmäßigen Preiserhöhungen sind das Einzige was wirklich zuverlässig funktioniert.

### 1/5 — Clunky and basically un-usable

*2025-11-18, version 2.8.01*

This app is broken more often than not.  I have to reset the app multiple times a week due to it not functioning properly.  If I could give zero stars I would.  I wish they would put as much effort into the development of the iOS app as they did the android app.

### 1/5 — Broken and can’t login

*2025-11-17, version 2.8.01*

Dreadful, the whole system seems abandoned since they took it over (the web version to)
You cannot use the app, you have to login via a browser from mobile

### 1/5 — Funktioniert seit Jahren schlecht

*2025-08-09, version 2.7.11*

Warum bekommt es n-able seit Jahren nicht hin, dass diese App für ihr Passportal nicht läuft!! Ständig stürzt Sie die App ab. Seit einer Woche werden nicht mehr alle Kennwörter angezeigt. Beim aktualisieren durch herunterziehen stürzt die App wieder ab. Wir bezahlen für Passportal monatlich Geld und die mobile App funktioniert einfach nicht. Wie kann es einem Hersteller wie n-Anke nur so egal sein!

### 1/5 — Failed to authenticate

*2025-07-03, version 2.6.00*

The mobile app doesn’t work, only the website does

### 1/5 — Sometime good sometimes bad

*2025-03-13, version 2.5.12*

Sometimes works sometimes doesn’t.  Needed articles and other client data while on site and within the app there are zero articles, knowing back at the office on the Passportal desktop software there’s 20+.  Uninstalling doesn’t work, resetting the app doesn’t work, thus 2 stars at max.

### 1/5 — Never worked correctly

*2025-01-30, version 2.5.9*

I’ve been using this app going on three years now at my employer…

It never completely worked, something’s always broken.

Recently it was lot of entries not showing up. 

New version came out today… everything seems to show up…

But I don’t have permission to see any password. (But I do have permission… it used to work on the app and it’s working on the web page..)

TLDR: piece of garbage app, don’t waste any storage space having this on your phone, it’s completely useless

### 1/5 — Barely functional at best

*2024-12-26, version 2.4.4*

And that’s when the passwords do synchronize - which most of the time they don’t

### 1/5 — App unusable

*2024-12-06, version 2.4.4*

When using duo for 2fa the app doesn't receive the token.  Can't even open app. Support says reinstall. That doesn't help.  Same product as it was 5 years ago Private equity buys company and no more development

### 1/5 — Unuseable

*2024-11-19, version 2.4.4*

Can’t even login the app is broken and will not work with push or MFA code. All works fine outside the app

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Worst app ever stay away

*2026-07-19, version 3.1.16*

Worked for a while intermittently but stopped working completely 6 months or so ago. Find a new service; this is garbage.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-05-25, version 3.1.09*

App is telling me my password vault is empty, but I have many passwords on the website on my desktop in the same account.

### 1/5 — Continually Crashes

*2026-04-09, version 3.1.09*

When you need your password management system the most it crashes.

Do better ….

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-04-02, version 3.1.09*

The app constantly crashes. The browser extension is decent.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-04-01, version 3.1.09*

In this day and age of needing a reliable password manager this app is a total let down. 

Always crashes, won’t open at all, and the developer DOES NOT CARE.

Stay away and pick a better option

### 1/5 — iPhone App is Garbage

*2026-03-21, version 3.0.01*

Not sure why this iPhone app has been so bad for so many years. Why can’t they fix it and stop is from crash. Never have these issues with Keeper Security App

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2026-03-12, version 3.0.01*

App won’t open without uninstalling. Works for a week or so, then suddenly crashes every time you try to open it again.

### 1/5 — This app sucks!

*2026-03-07, version 3.0.01*

It is a terrible app! I have to constantly uninstall it and reinstall to get it working.

### 1/5 — Buggy program

*2026-03-05, version 3.0.01*

I want this to be a good program as we use it for work. You literally have to uninstall it an reinstall/set it up after every update. It crashes after very single update.

### 1/5 — Clunky, Outdated, and Crashing

*2026-03-03, version 3.0.01*

The app is clunky. It’s not very user friendly in how it’s laid out. It’s just not very modern and it feels like an after thought on the n-able team. Also, it’s always crashing when I load it up. I can uninstall the app and reinstall it, but after a while, it’s back to the same old. I am frustrated that I can’t just load it up. However, the web browser extension I use has been working wonderfully. I just wish that they would fix the app and make it stable and user friendly.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great for enterprise use

*2026-03-08, version 3.0.01*

We implemented passportal as a mandatory password manager for our company and it is incredibly helpful. The browser extension is a godsend. We can create security based folders to share passwords with different departments and also keep a private list of passwords for ourselves. I use it to create complex and unique passwords now as a best security practice.

### 5/5 — Finally an app

*2019-04-01, version 1.6.5*

So far it’s great for a tech who works remote a lot. I can retrieve all my clients passwords and more on the go.

### 5/5 — Nice Addition...

*2019-01-31, version 1.0*

To an already great password management suite. Makes password management and accessibility one step simpler for field techs.

### 5/5 — So glad it’s finally here!

*2019-01-31, version 1.0*

Great first app. So far problem free. A few things I hope are in the works:
-password integration with Safari
-share sheet for sending passwords
-documentation support

### 4/5 — Super Neuerung

*2022-03-15, version 2.0.0*

Endlich mehr als nur Passworte mobil nutzen. Auch die Dokumentationen nun mobil einsehen. Echt klasse.

### 4/5 — Thank you

*2019-12-24, version 1.8.7*

This app solved my password storage issues and it is great to know that I have the support of my IT partner. Minor errors that can be corrected waiting a little bit or signing back in.

### 3/5 — Please fix the glitches

*2023-11-05*

I’m a fan of Passportal, but the iPhone glitches are awful. I constantly have to log back in or passwords won’t fill in safari. When I bounce back to Passportal to refresh this will sometimes fix it or just crash the app. There’s also an issue with the bottom half of the screen going missing as another user mentioned.

### 3/5 — Good but can be better

*2023-09-07, version 2.2.4*

I’ve had Passportal for over a year now. Using it in browser is great, I couldn’t live without it. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the iPhone app. I continually have a glitch when I view credential list, the bottom half of the screen is blank and you can only view in the top half of the screen. This issue has been intermittent for the the last year and hasn’t been fixed. I would give 5 stars if this issue is resolved.

### 3/5 — Use to be nice

*2023-07-06, version 2.2.3*

Use to work nice at less ut was showing all password now I have half my folder showing empty, but on the web page there password. Creating new password only show new one.
Logoff/login, uninstall/install nothing changed.

### 3/5 — Great concept, bugs, crashes

*2020-10-09, version 1.8.7*

App doesn’t appear to be optimized for iOS 14. Crashes when trying to open app. Delete and re-install worked temporarily but it’s crashing again.
