It’s probably time you started paying for LastPass

[Chris Smith]

• LastPass announced that subscribers on the free tier would have to choose between desktop-only and mobile-only use rather than enjoying a complete password management experience.
• Like other password managers, LastPass protects passwords and additional sensitive information and works on computers, mobile phones, and tablets.
• Using a password manager to safeguard one’s online presence is the best and simplest investment for increasing password security and protection from hackers. Paying for the full LastPass experience makes more sense than using the service at half its power.

Password management app LastPass announced new restrictions for its free subscription tier users that will annoy some users. Starting March 16th, users will have to choose between using the app on desktop (which includes any sort of computer browser where LastPass is available) or mobile (iPhone, iPad, and all Android devices). Users will be able to switch between the two versions of free LastPass, at which point they’ll be stuck in free mode on either desktop or mobile. Any user of a password management app will tell you that one of the best things about these apps is that you can use your secure, unique passwords on ALL your devices.

LastPass’s new restriction will effectively cripple your internet experiences. Passwords are needed everywhere, whether it’s your mobile phone, tablet, or home and work computers. Picking just desktop or mobile shouldn’t be something anyone should consider. But rather than being angry at LastPass for pulling this functionality from your free account, you should do the only thing that fixes it: Start paying for one of the paid LastPass subscriptions.
