Import Tips:
If your team had a previous password manager and passwords have been shared with the team, we recommend all team members export only the records they own and share them with whoever on the team needs access after importing them to Lockwell.
Import the accounts/records you own (not accounts that have been shared with you) into Lockwell's password vault.
Once your records are safely imported into Lockwell's vault, you can then proceed to share them with your team as needed.
Your security is our top priority!
