Password Managers all have the concept of a 'Primary' user, who shares access to passwords etc. with 'Secondary' users. The primary can cut off the secondary at any point, but not the other way around. For couples/groups where everyone has equal standing, this model doesn't work.

Also a lot of 2FAs are based around authenticator apps which can only be installed onto one device at a time.



It's not the case in Dashlane at least. If you share a password with "full rights", all users have the same access to the password, and can cut off the others at any time.


OK, good to know, thanks!
