Poor application. Don't auto fill the pages. I needed to copy and paste the credentials all the time. I don't recommend.
The point of a password manager is that you don't have to remember passwords yourself, but with this extension I still have to for some applications I use often. The problem is mostly single sign on for me. I click on login, the website (app.eu.myglue.com) will be opened in a separate tab for login, I see that I'm logged in, then the tab will close again and nothing happens. No credentials filled and extension is still not logged in. When I go to the website (app.eu.myglue.com) myself, login and go back, the extension seems to be logged in. However I can refresh the page all I want or open it in a new tab, but no credentials are automatically filled still. Only after a while (10 minutes or so) it'll start auto-filling credentials.
So then you try to search manually in the extension for the credentials you need, but you have to remember the start of the name or url, because it will only match on start. For example you will not find your credentials for 'account.example.com' if you type 'example' in the search bar. You have to start with 'account'.
We switched from LastPass (for obvious security reasons) to MyGlue for password management. I gave it a year of use to shake off any initial negative views because it was "different that what I'm used to". Here are my observations:
• Single Sign On doesn't always stick the first (or second, or third) time.
• The extension injects CSS into places it shouldn't be. As a web developer, I know this is really easy to control, so I can only assume it is a lazy attempt to put together a browser extension.
• The extension doesn't let you edit your passwords, but rather redirects you to the website to do so.
• It still shows Archived passwords in the list of regular items without indicating that it is any different. Couple this with my organization's decision to not let any of us delete passwords and it leads to a very bad user experience.
• It doesn't give you the option to update a password when it detects that it may be different than what you already have for that site.
Sometimes I think it would be better to just use the browser's built-in password manager.
