Today, we’re happy to share that we’re introducing a dedicated username field for exactly this reason! Rolling out now on all platforms. Simply tap the (+) sign to the left of the email field to reveal the username field.

Let us know what you think! You can also propose, vote, and discuss feature requests on ~User Voice~.

Just saw this request on uservoice today, really nice to see they're also considering inputs there.

Love proton pass, I think it's their best product and it's their fastest improving one too. It doesn't have the drawbacks of their other products like speed or wonky mobile apps. It's their only product to have an iPad app as well. Development speed is also way faster than their other products. I don't know what's different internally between pass and their other services, but i think pass has a smaller team cracked devs, so maybe that helps

It’s their only product to have an iPad app as well.

The only app that hasn't yet been optimized for iPad is the Calendar app. Otherwise, Proton has proper iPad apps for everything else.

That's great!

Been wanting this in Bitwarden for forever. Was using the custom field as a replacement.

Hope tags are next

Is it known how this will behave when exporting and importing to other password managers? I imagine the username field will then be treated as a custom field.

Most password managers don't have aliases. So if anything, that would be the custom field.

I maintain this should have been an incredibly obvious day one feature but I appreciate it nonetheless. Problem is I have to now go back and change all 300 logins to reflect this change because I was forced to save them incorrectly.
