True Key Features
True Key has a long list of features that will tempt you into using it, and rightfully so.
- Biometric Login: You can use your fingerprint/faceprint to sign it to the True Key app.

- Cross-Device Sync: You can use your profile on all your devices to easily access the information you need whenever and wherever you need it.
- Password Generator: You can choose your preferences for a password (letters, numbers, special characters, and capital letters) and True Key will generate it for you. You can have up to 30 characters.
- Password Auto-Save: Whenever you log into any website, your password will be automatically saved and the app/extension will let you know. You can undo it if you don't want a certain website saved.
- You can import your old passwords from another True Key account or even from other password managers such as Dashlane or LastPass.
Security and Privacy
True Key has taken measures to ensure you have the safest place for your passwords with the following privacy features:
- True Key uses the AES-256 encryption, which is one of the strongest encryption algorithms, making sure no one can decrypt your information but you.
- MFA: Multi-factor authentication is a standard feature you get upon signing up. You always have to be verified by at least two factors, and the more factors you add, the safer your information is.

If you need more than 15 passwords, with the premium plan, you can have unlimited passwords and only for $19.99/year on unlimited devices.

Final Verdict
True Key's strength lies in the fact that if you're using it for personal purposes and you don't need more than 15 passwords, you can enjoy all features for free. And even if you decide that you need to have unlimited passwords, the premium plan is still affordable.
Security is a top priority for True Key, with its strong encryption and multi-factor authentication.
However, if you're an expert looking for a password manager for your business or team, you might find that True Key lacks some of the advanced features that you might find in other password managers.
