Every password, passkey, and 2FA code — locked behind one master key, autofilled everywhere on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Emergency access — name someone you trust to reach your vault if you ever can't — after a waiting period you control. Your vault is end-to-end encrypted before it ever leaves your device. No one but you can read it. Not even us. AUTOFILL EVERYWHERE Sign in with a tap. ZZPass fills passwords and passkeys directly in Safari and your apps — no copy-pasting, no app switching. PASSKEYS, BUILT IN Create and use passkeys for faster, phishing-resistant sign-ins — stored securely, synced to every device you own. 2FA AUTHENTICATOR, INCLUDED Keep two-factor codes right next to the logins they protect. Password and verification code, filled together — one app instead of two. TRUE END-TO-END ENCRYPTION Everything is encrypted on your device with AES-256 before it syncs, and travels through your own iCloud account. We never see your passwords — and we couldn't hand them over if we tried. SHARE SAFELY WITH PEOPLE YOU TRUST Create a shared vault for the household Wi-Fi, streaming logins, and family accounts. Shared items carry their own encryption keys, so only invited members can read them — and a built-in chat lets your group talk right where the passwords live. PLAN FOR THE UNTHINKABLE Emergency Access — Unlike most password managers, it still works when it matters most: your trusted contact inherits access even if your account is gone entirely. Time Capsules — lock a secure note until a future date, or until you've been inactive for a set time, then pass it to someone you choose. A message, a legacy, an "open this when the time comes" — sealed until that moment arrives. KNOW YOUR WEAK SPOTS Password Health flags weak, reused, and empty passwords across your vault and shared items, and a built-in generator replaces them with strong, unique ones. ONE VAULT FOR EVERYTHING • Passwords, passkeys, and 2FA codes • Secure notes for anything private • File attachments — recovery codes, documents, photos • In sync on iPhone, iPad, and Mac through iCloud SWITCHING FROM ANOTHER APP? Move in within minutes: Apple's direct password transfer, 1Password (.1pux) import, and standard CSV from the password managers and browsers you already use. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • End-to-end encrypted, always • Unlocked with Face ID or Touch ID • No ads, no selling your data, no tracking across apps • Anonymous crash and usage statistics only — bucketed, never tied to you, and you can switch them off • Built on Apple's CryptoKit with industry-standard encryption FREE TO START All the essentials are free — unlimited passwords, passkeys, and 2FA codes, autofill, iCloud sync, and a shared vault. ZZPass Premium unlocks unlimited shared vaults, Emergency Access, more attachments, and vault printing. Download ZZPass and take control of your passwords — securely, privately, everywhere.
