We're making changes to how Free users access LastPass across device types. LastPass offers access across two device types – computers (including all browsers running on desktops and laptops) or mobile devices (including mobile phones, smart watches, and tablets). Starting March 16th, 2021, LastPass Free will only include access on unlimited devices of one type

The service is still good, but I've noticed it doesn't fill out forms as well as it used to and auto sorted my accounts a couple years ago and I had to go and fix it.
My most recent gripe is that they display ads alongside their browser extensions even though I'm a paying user. I've complained more than once, and they don't seem to care.
If I can't use on mobile and PC together, I am through with them.
I'm a PC user with Apple mobile devices, so I will have to look into a free way to merge password wallets (because icloud keychain only works in certain browsers, etc, hence the need for a password manager to begin with, all these services block the others - ugh).
I won't pay LastPass due to the short notice plus the fact they won't grandfather existing accounts. Out of spite.
Any word on if premium software is better than free?
Is there any alternative?
This is a very short notice.
That is one of the main features why I use LastPass.

How easy was to move passwords to Bitearden? Where is that info stored?
bitwarden
BitWarden has a very capable free version and you can self-host the server if you are super cheap but want the premium features. The funny thing? I would never pay for LastPass, but since BitWarden is an "open source but pay if you want to use their cloud-hosting" model, I'll probably spring for the family BitWarden membership to support the devs.
And I have loads of free money sitting in my Google Play account as a result of competing surveys in Google Opinion Rewards, so it doesn't even cost me anything in real money. Maybe I will pay for one year and then examine Bitwarden as a replacement.
This is exactly my response. I had to double check that this wasn't my post. I think they lost a lot of paying customers back then
Simple, export to xml from lastpass, import in bitwarden. You'll have to use desktop interface on both though to do that
I find it easy to use, but that's subjective. With bitwarden you have two storage options: you can use their cloud storage, or your own server setup to store. Both options are free and use the same open source encryption algorithm.

Oh well, time to see what Bitwarden is all about now since (like many others I'm sure) I use both device types. I'd say Lastpass lost me as a user, but there probably isn't any love lost there anyway since I was only ever on the free tier...
