Total Password Review 2025: Do the Features Match the Price?

Total Password is a decent password manager, but it ultimately fails to deliver enough value to justify its high price tag. Learn about our complete testing experience.

Total Password is a decent password manager, but high prices, missing features, and other concerns leave it trailing behind the competition. Ultimately, we think most people should look elsewhere.

Total Password gets the basics of password management right, including secure storage, autofill, cross-device sync, and the ability to store other types of information. However, in a crowded market, its shortcomings add up. In particular, its price is several times that of most competitors, but it fails to deliver value to justify that price.

Pros
  • Easy-to-use password management
  • Does the basics well
  • Lots of add-ons available
  • Large discounts available for the first year
Cons
  • Lacks documentation for some features
  • Expensive compared to competition
  • Somewhat concerning privacy policy regarding personal data

How we test and rate password managers

We put every password manager through vigorous hands-on testing by downloading the software to our own devices. We test how the product works on both mobile and desktop, evaluating how well we're able to save, share, and use passwords across a variety of situations.

By taking a fine-tooth comb through all available features and settings, we carefully compare each product using our proprietary grading rubric. The star ratings take into account price, features, extras like cloud storage and data breach alerts, plus looks at security and privacy features like encryption levels and past data breaches.

Our experience

We tested Total Password using the Chrome extension on a MacBook Pro running macOS Tahoe 26.1.

Overall, the extension worked well. We didn’t have any issues adding passwords or other information. Password autofill worked well. The extension provides pop-up windows to autofill passwords, save new ones, and update existing passwords. The password generator is packed with options and also works well.

Autofilling personal information, such as names and addresses, was a little less intuitive. Rather than an automatic pop-up, the extension adds an icon to the field, and you have to click this icon in order to use the autofill. This wasn’t clearly explained, but once we figured it out, it was fine.

Ultimately, Total Password’s core features did what we needed with no real issues. We encountered some frustrations, though. Our main complaint is a lack of documentation — some features are not clearly explained (or explained at all), and while there’s a help center, it doesn’t offer explanations for every feature.

How much does Total Password cost?

Total Password costs $119/yr. There is only one plan, and only one payment schedule — while the site seems to point to a monthly plan, we could only find the option to pay for the entire year at once. The package includes Total Adblock, but crucially, it’s not the premium version.

We did receive a pop-up offering a discount on the first year when we tried to leave the sign-up page. Normally, we’re all for discounts. However, in this case, the discount was so substantial ($95 off in one case and $100 in another) that we almost felt suspicious. It also felt a little off-putting that we were offered different discount amounts on different occasions.

Total Password’s cost is very high compared to the competition. For example, NordPass starts at $0.99/mo, while RobForm starts at $0.89/mo.There are a handful of free options on the market, including NordPass, although you may want to avoid built-in browser password vaults like Google Password Manager.

So even with the discount offered, Total Password is still nearly twice the price of other top options, and the discount applies only to the first year.

Some products offer enough value to justify paying the extra cost versus competitors. Unfortunately, Total Password doesn’t really bring that value to the table. It could be worthwhile if you’re already using other Total Security products, but as it stands, it’s tough to justify the extra cost here.

Total Password offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on annual plans.

Total Password features

Total Password is a relatively bare-bones password manager. It does the basics reasonably well, but lacks some of the extra features that competitors offer. In particular, it lacks digital legacy and password sharing options, which adds some friction to the experience.

Importing and exporting passwords

Total Password allows easy importing and exporting of passwords. You can import files from a wide range of other password managers, including popular options such as 1Password, Chrome, Bitwarden, and Dashlane. In our testing, the process was easy and worked well — no complaints. Similarly, you can export your passwords to either a CSV or a password-protected file.

Password sharing

Total Password lacks an option for easy password sharing. The best you can do is copy the password data and then paste it elsewhere to send via email, message, or other means. Additionally, the service does work across devices, but only for a single user. Other users will need to purchase separate subscriptions if they want their own account.

This is a big feature miss, particularly for the price. Easily and securely sharing passwords is a major convenience feature that most of the competition offers.

Password generator

Total Password offers a highly customizable password generator to help you create strong passwords. You can adjust which character types are included (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, special characters) and the password length (4-32 characters).

You can also toggle between using all characters or making the password easier to type, which is handy. Everything worked well in our testing.

Autofill and form filler

Total Password can store a variety of information types. Identities include title, name, company, address, email, and phone number. You can also store credit card information and create notes — either independently or attached to an identity, credit card, or password.

The form filler itself works well. The browser extension adds a lock icon to each form field, and clicking it will allow you to select the identity you want to use to fill out the form. We do think some instructions would be helpful — it took a bit of trial and error for us to figure out we needed to click the lock. However, once you know how it works, it works well.

Password strength report

Total Password includes a security report page that shows your status across several categories:

  • Master password strength
  • Whether two-factor authentication is enabled
  • How many duplicate passwords you have stored
  • How many of your passwords are flagged as weak
  • How many old passwords are stored (it’s not clear what constitutes an “old” password)

Clicking the various categories takes you to a page where you can correct the issue. For example, if you have duplicate passwords, clicking that segment will show you the duplicates. You can then click into each to change it.

The security report page also has a button to run a leaked password check. The tool checks your passwords against a database and lets you know if any match. Password leaks are common, and this tool can be helpful for staying ahead of identity thieves.

Digital legacy

“Digital legacy” in the context of password managers refers to a set of features that let you designate beneficiaries and grant them access to your passwords after your death. It’s obviously not a feature you’d use often, but it can be handy to ensure that your files and accounts are accessible to family or friends should something happen.

Unfortunately, Total Password lacks any sort of digital legacy feature. This means granting access to your password vault will be more convoluted in the event of an unexpected emergency.

Total Password privacy policy

Given that you’re dealing with passwords, privacy is a critically important factor in choosing a password manager. Total Password seems reasonably secure, but we did note some possible issues in the privacy policy.

Specifically, we were concerned that the privacy policy states that users have a right to request which pieces of information “we collect, use, disclose, and sell” about them. The policy also states that the company discloses some personal information for business purposes and to advertising networks and social media networks for marketing purposes.

According to the policy, the information disclosed includes "certain personal and online identifiers, online activity and browsing data, and inferences.” This could be referring to browsing data collected by cookies, but it’s not made abundantly clear.

Overall, the language of the policy struck us as vague and somewhat contradictory, and did not instill much confidence. While we don’t think that the company is viewing or sharing the data stored within the password manager, it’s still a shame to see a company that sells privacy-enhancing tools sharing anything with third parties.

Total Password third-party audits

Many companies in the digital privacy space have themselves audited by third parties to test their security practices. The results of these audits are then made public, which can help assure customers that the company is handling their data well.

As far as we can tell, Total Password (and its parent company, Total Security Ltd) has not had a third-party audit performed. While this doesn’t necessarily imply that there’s an issue, we do tend to give preference to companies that take this extra step.

Is Total Password safe to use?

We are not aware of any data breaches involving Total Password. The service uses a strong encryption protocol (AES-256) and offers two-factor authentication. Aside from our concerns about the privacy policy, Total Password does seem safe to use.

Two-factor authentication

Total Password offers two-factor authentication (2FA) through several different authenticator apps: Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, and Duo Mobile. There are no options for using email, SMS, or other authentication methods. The option is disabled by default and can be enabled by heading to the account settings within the app or extension.

Total Password compatibility

Total Password claims compatibility with Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. However, there are no native apps for Windows or Mac — you must use the browser extension for everything. The extension is available for Chrome, Edge, and Safari. No Firefox support feels like a miss.

Additionally, while there is an Android app, it was not compatible with the phone we attempted to test it on (a Google Pixel 7). There is no list of compatible Android devices published, and the company did not respond to our request for more information.

Total Password customer service

Our experience with Total Password’s customer service was, unfortunately, not great. There’s a help center, but the content is very slim. Specifically, we were looking for explanations about certain features and were unable to find them.

Contacting the company with questions was also a challenge. The contact page is not linked anywhere on the website or extension (at least, not that we could find), so we had to Google the page to locate it. Once there, you fill out a form that’s supposed to connect you to a live chat. However, it would not connect for us. No business hours are provided.

Top alternatives

Total Password is far from the only password manager on the market. Some of the best alternatives we recommend are NordPass, RoboForm, and Keeper. All three are affordable password vaults with strong privacy records, easy navigation, and top-notch security features. See how they compare:

Total Password FAQs

Is Total Password legit?

Yes, Total Password is a legit password manager from a legit company. It’s part of a larger suite of security and privacy products, including Total VPN and Total Adblock.

Who owns Total Password?

Total Password is owned by Total Security Ltd. The company is based in the UK and registered in England and Wales. 

How do I cancel my Total Password subscription?

How you cancel a Total Password subscription depends on how you purchased it. If you bought the subscription directly from Total Password with a credit card or PayPal, you can cancel through the Total Security Online Portal by heading to the “My Subscriptions” section in the sidebar.

If you purchased the subscription through Apple’s App Store or Google Play Store, you’ll have to cancel it through those channels. If you need help, the company provides instructions to cancel a subscription on its help center. 

Bottom line: Is Total Password good?

Total Password does the basics of password management fairly well. However, we had several complaints with the service, particularly compared to competitors. The service is missing a handful of common features, the customer support was lackluster, and the privacy policy raised some red flags. It’s considerably more expensive than competitors, to boot.

Ultimately, we think customers already using Total Security’s other services might like Total Password. For everyone else, we think NordPass or one of the other top password managers would be a much better choice.
