I’m migrating the handful of accounts that I have 2FA set up in from using Authy to using Proton Pass. But I’m stuck on my Proton account itself. Should I keep Authy just for my Proton account and then once I’m in, I can use Pass for the rest of the 2FAs?

What do you do?

    It’s recommended to keep your Proton 2FA separate from Proton Pass. I think they wrote a blog post about it, I’ll link it here if I find it

    Edit:

    Please note that you should never use Proton Pass to secure your Proton Account using TOTP. Use a third-party authenticator app instead.

    Proton themselves have suggested creating a second Proton account expressly for this purpose, despite violating their own ToS.

      You shouldn’t use multiple free accounts. That’s on their TOS. But you can have multiple paid accounts, or one free and a paid account, sure thing.
