Does anyone use it? I was offered free membership to it. It has a ton of options for security. Bank credit cards, social security phones, email, and home addresses are among many securities, but I’m interested in knowing if anyone uses it on Android devices; I have a few questions about the password manager aspect.

It looks pretty good. Try it and report back.
Interestingly they bought up a parental control app that I recommend - so I have heard of them but I didn’t know they offered a password manager and honestly, that is about the extent that I know about them.
It is probably fine but I’d prefer a password manager I am more familiar with like 1Password, KeePass, or Bitwarden (but hey I’ll take them over LastPass). I also prefer my password manager to be open-source which as far as I can tell this one is not. I also prefer password managers that are the sole focus of its developers instead of part of a security suite. Finally, $12 a month for its cheapest plan loaded with features I don’t need or want in a password manager is too high for me. Bitwarden does everything a password manager needs to do for free. The premium tier adds some nice perks for $10/yr.
Did you wind up using Aura? I’m considering it as my password manager and was wondering about your opinion if you did wind up trying it. Thanks!
I’m using it. It’s a security powerhouse. That’s why I said the OP should take a bite at it and compare.
It baffles me why people down it’s on an opinion and with facts, instead of just engaging in a positive conversation. I don’t downvote people because I disagree with their opinion. It’s truly sad but

2022 review: “Dangerous website protection fails on macOS, iOS, Android”
So I would stay away until you see a better review from a reputable source. As I mentioned in other spots, wirecutter has some strict standards that are worth reviewing for password managers and vpns etc.
I do think the idea of packaging all these together is smart. And heck I’d love that million dollar pledge haha. Let’s hope it gets secure and some valid third party checks that wirecutter recommends for it’s password managers etc
Understood but it’s a 2 dollar difference you are talking about. I prefer a 5 million USD guaranteed if your personal info is breached vs absolutely nothing bitwarden offers but that’s just me
Has your identity been stolen cause you are the OP? Did MondoBob do it? Can you get the $1M now?
Links broken for me and can’t find it in search either
Dont sweat it. Remember most people in this world are stressed out and not thinking straight. One step at a time with half of em backwards is how the world works a lot of the time haha
I trust Security.org more than PC Mag. Security.org is a total research monster and I trust their reviews. Also my federal benefits wouldn’t be recommending and giving me a free Aura account if it wasn’t already researched and cleared by them. Any other “opinion” I really don’t care about. Thanks anyhow 
$12 a MONTH versus $10 a YEAR is not a $2 difference.
As for the $5 million guaranteed that is only on their $37/MO family plan and is up to $1M per person to cover eligible losses and fees due to identity theft. Let us just say I don’t trust it. What triggers it? A data breach? Password theft? That isn’t necessarily identity theft (might lead to it but not necessarily). Do they pay regardless of the cause or only if something they specifically do fails (ie since their credit lock only extends to Experian, do they not cover because an identity theft occurred through one of the other bureaus)? What will be needed to collect? Will it be easy? What are the odds they are going to make it so difficult you will just give up? This is insurance we are talking about.
Plus, quite frankly you can do almost everything thing they are going to do to protect your identity from financial fraud for practically free or at least much less than $240/yr. Start with freezing your credit and you have probably done 90% of the work (you really should freeze your credit regardless of what else you do). It should be noted that their credit lock only extends to one credit bureau. You can freeze your credit for free at all the credit bureaus.
By the way, I am not trying to impugn them. As far as I know, they are a great company that does everything they promise even if I am a bit skeptical. But when asking about a password manager all those bells and whistles don’t impress me. I don’t see anything that they do for password management that Bitwarden doesn’t do for less. Plus Bitwarden is open source and audited which means I can have greater confidence they are doing what they say they are doing.
Indeed, they just come, read something they don’t agree with or plainly just don’t like it and downvote you. It’s plain ignorant and childish. Instead of engaging in a productive exchange, sharing ideas, etc and if we can n6ot agree upon some points or anything at all just agree to disagree but just pushing the down it is childish
Well I see all the pointers you have made but I must burst your bubble on 1 issue, freezing your credit is not 90% protection. That’s a mere 30% and I’m stretching it. If it were that protective millions of users already frozen on all 3 credit bureau wouldn’t be complaining and collecting from breaches especially their SSN and bank accounts ( me being a victim of it, ally federal benefits checks were going to a totally different address for 4 months straight and hey not Equifax, no Experian, no TransUnion no nothing knew how it happened, told me it would be escalated because of ongoing investigation to let me know they didn’t know how it happened and I was paid retroactively 4 months ) I didn’t say password theft, passwords get stolen no matter how strong you set it up and how many bytes of encryption 256 , 1 million ( ← sarcasm ) because they don’t target you personally they just hack the company and there goes your password and THEN if your PERSONAL identifications are breached which most likely it’s on the hacked files, then the guaranteed protection goes into effect because it was NOT your fault or doing.
Another thing, you get protection for ally credit bureaus, don’t believe it? Call and ask them. Also worth reading Aura Identity Theft Protection Review 2025 | Security.org.
Credit reports protection? Worth reading Best Credit Protection Services and Companies of 2025 | Security.org
It’s not just a willy-nilly site. It’s reputable and they know what they talk about based on research.
Lastly, it is a Federal provided/Approved application for your security and add/throw to it a well rounded password manager, VPN, Virus Protection. Man you are talking about a behemoth here compared to ( password manager only ) bitwarden etc al.
If you want peace of mind, sleep soundly and confident all your stuff is protected while you are shut eyes, I’d go for it 1000% especially when it’s FREE because I am a Federal benefits recipient. That being said, go freeze your credit and leave ( according to your own estimate ) that 10% unsecured, available for all them Black-Hat folks out there in China, Russia you name it

Cons of a credit freeze
There are a few, potentially:
A freeze can give you a false sense of security; you may still be susceptible to fraudulent charges on an existing credit account if it’s been compromised, or health care or tax refund scams involving your Social Security number. It’s still important to check monthly statements carefully for signs of fraudulent activity.
It can complicate creating a mySocialSecurity account (to track earnings, estimate future benefits, etc.). You can do so with a credit freeze or fraud alert in place, but you’ll have to go in person to a Social Security office.
Your insurance rate could increase if your state allows the use of credit information to set rates. In some cases, insurers can’t access your frozen file and might not give you a discount a good score entitles you to. If that happens, you can call your agent to find out if you need to unfreeze your credit.
It can be somewhat inconvenient, because you need to remember to lift the freeze when you want to apply for credit. That inconvenience pales in comparison to having to unwind fraud or identity theft, though.
You may forget whether your credit is frozen. (If that happens, there are simple ways to find out if your credit is frozen.)
You are OP and comment on your post and if OP is someone else.
