I have a bunch of resources on how to use Dashlane for anyone interested. My goal is to have everyone comfortable on the web-first experience, so the desktop app going away isn’t a big deal for our team. No more password resets or asking a coworker what a shared password is!
If you don’t use Dashlane’s extension, I can’t recommend it enough! Dashlane not only helps keep our company secure with strong passwords, but it’ll save you time every day by storing and autofilling passwords for you. If you are already using the browser extension, you’re basically already all the way there! Instead of using the desktop application to view the contents of your vault, you can do so by clicking on the Dashlane extension (the teal D browser extension) and selecting the option to Open the web app. Over the next few months, Dashlane is moving away from its desktop application and offering its full product through its browser extension and web app experience. Hi all, there are a few upcoming changes to how our team will be using Dashlane. We recommend sending this in October, when you may want to start getting your employees who already use Dashlane familiar with the web-first experience.
Below is a templated message to send via chat or email. Communication is key, so while we are providing instructions within the app, it’s also important to give your team a heads up about the changes.
The introduction of Mac Catalyst in 2019 allowed developers to turn their iPad apps into native macOS apps easily, which meant we could adapt the code we already had in a shorter timespan, so Safari users could enjoy the same features as on our other browser extensions, in a new and lightweight format.Ĭatalyst would help us build a great Dashlane app, completely integrated within the Apple ecosystem, and benefit from everything we had already built for iOS/iPad! We knew that the refactor of our iOS app would make it possible.Īfter a few changes to our Xcode project, the Catalyst app was alive! All the features we had on iPad were there, even app extensions like the Widget or the Credential Autofill, almost for free! It is one of the major advantages of using the Catalyst technology: all the new features we build for the iOS app will be available at the same time for our Safari users, without additional development.Step 3: Give your team a heads up about upcoming changes.Īs part of the migration, some of your colleagues will have to change the way they are using Dashlane. Over the years, Apple has made many improvements to the iPad environment, making it closer to Mac's desktop user experience. Thankfully, Apple had a solution for us: Mac Catalyst, a way to bring our iPad app to macOS. Dashlane's site has a page for diagnosing issues with the extension, such as not being able to see the button on your Firefox toolbar: One of the answers lead to a download/install page if needed.
During our last company hackathon, we challenged ourselves to build a better experience for our Safari users without rebuilding everything from scratch.
