User reviews
The extension mostly works, but it has some issues that haven't been resolved in years:
- it does not log out automatically, even when configured to do so.
- the launch functionality is not to be trusted. I've had cases where the extension keeps trying repeatedly to log into some website while filling the form incorrectly, which got my account blocked. It would be best to be able to open the website and fill in the form, but without submitting. And especially without retrying the submit.
Also when compared to competitors like 1Password, it lacks nice features (by the way, it seems LastPass is just dormant in terms of features, it is not even trying to catch up to others):
- Save the information when login is done via SSO. I sometimes have to look for credentials in lastpass, and after I don't find them, I need to figure out which service I used to log in, by scavenging emails. 1Password saves this information (e.g. you logged here with your Google account), as a general extension designed to help with logging in should.
I don't care that features are added constantly, but if a competitor finds something that is genuinely helpful, I would expect a paid service like LastPass to adopt these improvements too.

I've used LastPass for a while, but after recent security breaches and constant glitches, I can no longer trust it. The auto-fill feature is inconsistent, often failing on critical sites, and the browser extension has become buggy and slow. Worst of all, LastPass has suffered multiple security breaches, exposing users’ sensitive information. A password manager is supposed to enhance security, not put it at risk.
On top of that, their customer support is nonexistent—good luck getting a response if you run into issues. I’ve since switched to a more reliable and transparent password manager. Avoid LastPass if you value your security and sanity!

This extension was never great but it was "good enough" to keep my users from making the change to a competitor even after the data breach and having to change all their passwords. The unresolved 100% CPU issue with this extension finally pushed them over the edge. We've cancelled our paid subscription and moved to a different service.
