Features & Capabilities

Synology Secure SignIn is a Chrome extension designed for Synology NAS users to enhance account security. It requires a Synology NAS and DSM 7.0+ with the Secure SignIn service enabled.

It offers two verification methods: Approve Sign-In and OTP. Approve Sign-In can replace the DSM password, and either method can be used as the second step in a 2FA workflow to improve protection.

User Reviews

User reviews show Synology Secure SignIn provides strong security with OTP/SSO and adds protection for NAS, but suffers from chronic reliability and UX issues. Approvals and notifications often fail or lag, sign-in is inconsistent, and device-transition onboarding can be painful. Some praise its security when it works, but frequent failures push users toward passwords or other MFA options. Overall, the app is valued for protection yet hampered by reliability, UX, and startup issues.
Pros
  • Strong security features with OTP and Single Sign-On (enterprise-grade security).
  • Adds a protective layer to your NAS and is convenient for access control.
  • Simple and user-friendly when it works (especially on iPhone).
  • Positive sentiment and general usability when functioning.
Cons
  • Very inconsistent reliability: often works only 30–50% of the time.
  • Approval/notification flow frequently fails to appear, is delayed, or is rejected.
  • Difficult device transitions (e.g., when replacing phones) and onboarding issues.
  • Unintuitive 2FA flow (having to select a number) and security concerns; UX could be improved.
  • Startup stability issues and session problems (black screen, sessions expiring).

The 3 number code confirmation is in consistent and by far the best thing for 2 factor verification but the app doesn’t que up all the time I’m about 60% just doesn’t que up on my apple to 75% having to use a different way to sign in
