![]() ![]() You'll need a LastPass Premium or Family account to do this after March 16. “You’ll have three opportunities to switch your active device type to explore what’s right for you.” “As a Free user, your first login on or after March 16th will set your active device type,” the company’s announcement explains. Now the company is returning to that model. Rival Dashlane limits free users to a single device, by comparison, and LastPass itself used to restrict free users to either computers or mobile devices-not both-before opening the flood gates to all in 2016. What’s really surprising is that LastPass let free users log in on any device for as long as it has, given that being able to sync your login information across devices is the core feature of a password manager. It’s a bummer to be sure, but not a shock. If you want to use Lastpass’s saved passwords on your laptop and your phone, you’ll need to pay up for a premium account. ![]() Currently, even free users can use the service on all their devices, but starting March 16, you’ll be able to use it only on a single class of device (computer or mobile) at no cost. One of its most appealing features is going away though. Everyone should use a password manager, and LastPass is the best password manager around. ![]()
