This gives you a clear motivation upgrade, if only by limiting something you might have taken for granted. LastPass, which has more than 20 million users globally, is making some changes to its free version starting March 16, 2021. While there were incentives to use paid accounts before, such as encrypted file storage and dark web monitoring, it was relatively easy to get by with free service. Going beyond the statement, it appears to be a simple matter of boosting subscription numbers. Please note that all devices sync automatically, so users will never lose access to anything stored in their Vault or be locked out of their account due to these changes, regardless of whether they use computers or mobile devices to access LastPass. Click this, and LastPass will help you create and register a new password for that site with minimal fuss. LastPass Premium offers plenty of top features including cross-platform syncing, secure sharing, a password strength report, and dark web monitoring.
Our free version will continue to provide secure and unlimited password storage and sync across your device type of choice (all your mobile phones and tablets, or all computers). Then, under the saved password box, youll see a link titled Auto-Change Password.
#Lastpass changes update
This update also brings our Free solution in line with other leading password managers who have more limitations on their free offerings. Over the coming months and years, users will continue to see additional value and new features added to LastPass Premium, in addition to what’s included today - a security dashboard, dark web monitoring, secure password and item sharing, a save and fill experience across devices, and dedicated personal support. Not surprisingly, the company is discounting Premium subscriptions to $2.25 per month ($27 per year) versus their normal $3 to encourage upgrades.Ī LassPass spokesperson provided us with the following statement about the changes: This change is part of our increased focus on delivering future Premium product improvements as the security landscape continues to evolve in this new era of remote work.
