LastPass alternatives: 3 password managers that work on all your devices
LastPass's free plan works on one device type only: computer or phone, not both. Many people are also still moving after the 2022 incident in which an attacker copied backups of customer vault data. The sensitive fields were encrypted, and LastPass's March 2023 update lists what was taken and the actions it recommends.
