LastPass Free to force users to choose between mobile, desktop - silversurfer - 16 February 21

Quote:Starting next month, LastPass will no longer allow a free account to be used on multiple types of devices (computers and mobile) at the same time.
 
LastPass is a password manager that allows you to synchronize and auto-fill your login credentials throughout multiple platforms, including Windows, iOS, Android, and almost all web browsers.
 
While LastPass offers premium subscriptions with additional features, they also provide a Free subscription with "password management with access on all your devices for free."
 
The Free service is changing dramatically on March 16th, 2021, when LastPass will restrict free accounts to either a 'Computer' or 'Mobile' device platform simultaneously. For example, LastPass Free users will be able to use the service on their Android and iOS mobile devices simultaneously but not on computers or vice-versa.
 
"We’re making changes to how LastPass 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 16, 2021, LastPass Free will only include access on unlimited devices of one type," announced LastPass in a support bulletin.
