Dropbox is closing down its password manager next month

After five years in the password manager space, Dropbox is planning to shut down the security application designed to host all of your credentials.

Dropbox says it will instead "focus on enhancing other features in our core product." That suggests it was not particularly popular. Dropbox Passwords was competing with many great password managers with similar features, like 1Password, NordPass, and Proton Pass.

The shutdown process begins on Aug. 28, when the mobile app and browser extension move to view-only functionality. You will also be unable to add new passwords or edit existing credentials.

You will still be able to download and view all of your existing passwords for about a week and a half, but autofill functionality will also be turned off on Aug. 28, severely limiting the tool.

On Sept. 11, Dropbox will close its mobile app, but the browser extension will work for another month. Oct. 28 is the final date for Dropbox passwords, at which point you won't be able to access any of the services, and all entries will be deleted.

"Make sure to export your passwords by October 28, 2025 or you’ll lose access to your Dropbox Passwords data," Dropbox says.
