In a support document, Dropbox writes:
As part of our efforts to focus on enhancing other features in our core product, the Dropbox Passwords application will be discontinued on October 28, 2025.
We recommend transferring your passwords to another trusted and secure password manager application such as 1Password.
Did anyone use Dropbox Passwords? I wish companies would stick with their core competencies rather than wasting everyone’s time with substandard alternatives to unrelated apps.
If you were unlucky enough to be lured into using Dropbox Passwords, you need to migrate to another password manager right away. The service will become read-only on 28 August 2025, and all data will be deleted on 28 October 2025. To its credit, Dropbox has made it especially easy to switch to 1Password. Simply click the Dropbox Password extension in your browser and choose Migrate to 1Password. Create a new 1Password account or sign into an existing one, then follow the remaining instructions to import your passwords.
While 1Password offers the smoothest transition path, you can also migrate to Apple’s free and increasingly competent Passwords app. Export a CSV file from Dropbox Passwords by choosing Preferences > Account > Export. You’ll have to adjust the file’s columns and headers in a spreadsheet or a utility like Modern CSV (see “Modern CSV Lets You Manipulate CSV Files Directly,” 25 November 2024) because Dropbox exports Name, Username, Password, Notes, URL whereas Passwords requires Title, URL, Username, Password, Notes, OTPAuth. (Leave the last two columns blank.) Once you have a correctly formatted CSV file, you can import it into Passwords in macOS 15 Sequoia with File > Import Passwords from File. A similar export/import dance may be possible in other password managers, too.
