Title; Seems like they are giving out a free 1-year plan, as long as you claim the offer before October 31st.

Seems to be legit, as it's coming from their own website. I am currently using their offered plans too, and it works.

If I'm not wrong, logins are unlimited even if you're on the free plan?

The only added benefit of the paid plan is unlimited email aliases and MFA ( which most people use external apps).

Unless they have changed it since the last time I used the app, no. You have to log out and enter new login information for every account.

Even if they've changed it, unless the app interface has changed the mobile web is still leaps better.

I thought you meant saved logins and passwords, rather than the proton account login.

To the second point, the paid plan still doesn't allow multiple account logins on mobile app, sign out is still required. Are you referring to vault sharing through family plan as the feature?

Goddammit I'm going to have to draw a diagram, aren't I?

When you go to the proton.me login page, you are presented with all of your login names. You select the one you want to use, enter a password, and you're in. Of course you have to fucking sign out to switch to another one. THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM.

The problem is that the app does not save multiple login names unless you pay them for it. You have to log out, remove your login information, add the new information, then log back in. Every fucking time.

Or you can do what I said and use a mobile browser that just takes you to the regular login page that saves multiple logins.
