Extension summary

IronVest is your all-in-one, security and privacy wallet that goes beyond any existing solutions to protect access to your accounts, secure your credit cards, and protect your privacy online with masked email addresses, single-use virtual cards**, and masked mobile numbers.

Use IronVest to prevent fraud by protecting access to your most sensitive accounts like banks, investments, health records, email, and more.

** More secure than a password manager or a VPN **

Traditional password managers are not secure enough. They store your most valuable usernames and passwords behind one single master password. And if that gets hacked, all your accounts are exposed.

VPNs provide a virtual private internet connection, but they are not designed to stop fraudsters from accessing your accounts. They create a false sense of security.

** How IronVest is different **

IronVest takes passwords and account logins to another level of security. With easy to use, face biometrics right from your browser, we ensure only you can access your most sensitive accounts like your bank account, email, investments, health records, and more.

** Next-gen password manager **

IronVest functioned passably well, with desyncs which require me to fully log back into the service via directly logging back into the IronVest website, not even the extension function in the top right itself, to be able to store and access my passwords being way more frequent than should ever be the case. As of writing, the app has completely wiped all of my data unprompted by me. Can't undo this myself due to backups being a paid feature. Even if I manage to get this fixed by customer service I would highly encourage you to seek an alternative security extension, the consistent glitches and the fact that you can apparently just get your data wiped is unacceptable for even a free password saving service. RIP Blur, you were infinitely better than this husk of a service.

This extension does a great job at a tough task--open access software for privacy protection. This is the right kind of blockchain application. I only use the opayq email mask, but I trust this technology and developer.

For me, the most important feature is two factor authentication in a password manager. I have been a longtime user but have gone elsewhere since this feature does not work anymore. Trying to activate brings up a screen asking to scan the QR code with your authentication app but no QR code is displayed. Wrote to customer service and they couldn't give me a time frame for it to be re-activated. This is a huge security hole that has not been available for months. You would think this would be addressed imediately by a security and privacy company.
