Syncing passwords

You can sync passwords that you saved in Yandex Start and Yandex Browser on your computers, phones, and tablets. During the syncing process, an encrypted copy of your password vault is sent to the Yandex server and then passed on to your other synced devices. Passwords from your other devices are simultaneously added to the vault on your current device.

By default, password syncing is enabled automatically when syncing is enabled. Password syncing is disabled if syncing is completely disabled. To disable only password syncing:

1. Tap (profile picture) → App settings → Manage data.
2. Disable the Passwords and cards option.

Disable the password manager

1. Tap  (profile picture) → Passwords.
2. Tap → Settings.
3. Disable Password manager.

The app won't save passwords and autofill them in authorization forms anymore. Previously entered passwords will be encrypted and saved on the device. They become available again if you re-enable the password manager.

To do this, go to settings and activate the option.
