LastPass: Form fillingīesides storing your passwords, the best password managers also make it easy to access them when logging in to different sites and services. Bitwarden and LastPass’ mobile apps allow you to access your stored credentials, auto-fill passwords and create new, strong passwords using their built-in password generators. With the LastPass Windows app, you can store up to 5,000 items but the company notes in a support page (opens in new tab) that you may see a performance decrease after adding 2,500 or more items.īoth password managers also offer full-featured mobile apps for iOS and Android. You can view stored passwords as a list or in blocks and they can be sorted several different ways. They closely resemble the company’s web vault with your Passwords, Notes, Addresses and other stored information available from the menu on the left. Unlike Bitwarden that also has a desktop app for Linux, LastPass only has them for Windows and Mac but they can’t be used with its free version.

With Bitwarden’s free plan, there are limits on 2FA (email and authentication app only) and file sharing with the ability to share vault items with only one other user. However, Bitwarden’s free plan has fewer limitations than what’s on offer from LastPass. Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Linux, Chrome OSĬhrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi, Torīitwarden and LastPass both offer a free tier for users who want to test out their password managers. Limited to one device 'category', limits on password sharing & 2FA $36 per year for single users, $48 per year for families (up to 6 users) $10 per year for single users, $40 per year for families (up to 6 users)
