Going to run this one past you all. Have them both (paid), and love them. Use BitWarden on desktop, and ProtonPass on iPhone.
Which, if any, are you running? and which of these two do you recommend? The good, the bad, likes, dislikes. Let's hear your comments.

By the way... Thanks for the input on my previous query, Dashlane or NordPass. ✌️

None :D

I use NordPass and can't live without it.
But after seeing both, my choice would be ProtonPass, which does what NordPass does :)

What I like about ProtonPass on my phone, is that I can set it to show "login history / recent logins" which is really nice considering one probably only logs into a limited number of sites on the phone, where one's desktop is where most family business is done.

I went bitwarden, because the paid plan is inexpensive. I also like how they have a standing bounty bug program, and that the program is open-source. I am not sure I trust Proton, since they are ambiguous about when owns and runs Proton in general. I trust bitwarden more than I do anything Proton. Weren't they just in the news for giving account access to a third party?

Proton gave recovery email address of the account to authorities. I think it was Apple which provided real identifiable information.

Just wish ProtonPass was less pricey. dragged my feet on the dollar a month for life last year and have been kicking myself ever since.
 
One of the things I don't like about about Proton is that if there's inactivity after X minutes and you're locked out, they force you to use a pin and not the master password to re-login. I prefer to use that master password and not a 5 digit pin; I use a long complex password for a reason.

Don't you need to have this option checked for that to happen?
