> On the other hand, this is what I use BitWarden for, so my wife has access to important accounts and vice-versa. BitWarden does provide free shared passwords for 2 users.
I just set my wife's email as the recovery address for my Gmail, figuring she can reset most of the important stuff from there.
But that's only a solution for "get into my accounts when I'm dead", not "share access to these things right now", and doesn't have the added benefit of a relatively secure password manager. And it ties you to Google, which may not be the wisest decision (but of course you could do something similar with a different service).
One potential benefit of something like a Passbox is that the important accounts would be ideally listed out vs having to guess what they are then reset the password via your gmail etc.
