You configure Password Manager settings for the mobile app and browser extensions on the Settings page.

Some settings are only available for specific browsers or operating systems.

General

The General section of the Settings page includes these settings:

To open the URL associated with a password, select the password in the Passwords list

This setting specifies what happens when you click a password in the Passwords list. Select this check box to open the website URL when you click a password. Clear this check box to open the Edit Password page when you click a password (default behavior).

Do not show the AuthPoint UI when I select a login field

Select this check box to hide the AuthPoint autofill UI when you click or select a login text box. You might do this if the autofill UI gets in the way, or if AuthPoint is not your primary password manager. If you select this check box, you can still click in any login text box to autofill or copy and paste your login credentials.

This setting is only available in web browsers.

If the AuthPoint autofill UI gets in your way on a specific website, you can click Snooze AuthPoint. This hides the AuthPoint autofill UI and prevents AuthPoint from autofilling your credentials for 10 minutes.

Do not autofill user names and passwords

Select this check box if you do not want AuthPoint to autofill your user names and passwords when you open or navigate to pages with login text boxes. If you select this check box, AuthPoint continues to prompt you to autofill your credentials when you select a login text box.

This setting is only available in web browsers.

Make AuthPoint the default password manager

Select this check box to make AuthPoint the default password manager for your web browser. We recommend that you make AuthPoint the default password manager.

This setting is only available in the Chrome, Firefox, and Edge web browsers.

Show AuthPoint in the context (right-click) menu

Select this check box to add AuthPoint to the context (right-click) menu. When you right-click and select AuthPoint in the menu, you can generate secure passwords.

This setting is only available in web browsers.
