In theory, Blur offers support for imports from 1Password, Dashlane, KeePass, LastPass, PasswordWallet, RoboForm and standard CSV files, but I had no luck getting it to recognize imports from any of those. If you previously used another password manager or saved passwords in your browser, you will want to import your existing data. Changing your Masked Phone number costs $7. Blur then automatically generates your masked phone number, which will forward calls, texts and voicemails to your real number. Simply enter your actual phone number and verify a code sent to that number. To take full advantage of Blur's features, you should also set up your Masked Phone. For reference, the passphrase is also viewable in Blur's settings, and on the main passwords screen unless you hit the "Hide forever" button just below the passphrase. The passphrase is a multiple-line set of random words that you should write down and save in a safe location. Recovering your passwords requires you to provide a backup passphrase that Blur generates for you during setup. Unusually for a password manager, Blur has a simple account-recovery option that will restore your email, phone and card services with just an email confirmation. Setting up Blur is about as easy as it gets, as there's just the web interface, browser extensions and mobile apps.Ĭreating your account requires an email address and a master password. Google Chrome was my primary browser across all platforms but testing on macOS and iOS was also done with Safari. On mobile devices, Blur is available for iOS 9.0 and above and Android 4.4 KitKat and up.įor this review, I used Blur on a 2017 MacBook Pro 15 running Windows 10 and macOS 10.14 Mojave, an iPhone 7 Plus and a Google Pixel 3 running Android 9 Pie. There are Blur browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera and even Internet Explorer, but not yet for Edge. On the desktop, Blur is entirely browser-based, without any client software.
