Its common to use multiple online services these days which means there’s a different set of credentials of each service. Some users tend to use the same credentials across all services, so if one is compromised, their entire online presence is at risk. Remembering different passwords for different services can be tricky particularly if you’re prone to forgetting things and that’s where password managers come in. LastPass, a popular password manager, now finally has an app for Mac OS X.
Mac users have been able to use LastPass, which is a cross-platform password manager, previously but only through the web portal and the browser extension. One can imagine just how much improved the user experience is now going to be since the LastPass app for Mac is finally available for download.
It brings some new features like security check, quick search and more. LastPass is actually capable of handling much more than just passwords for the websites you visit. It can also be used to store credit and debit card information, note, bank details and other sensitive data.
There’s a password generation feature built right into the app which lets users make secure and unique passwords for different services. The security check feature lets users know just how strong their passwords are.
LastPass app for Mac is available as a free download from the Mac App Store. There’s an annual subscription option for users who don’t want ads and would like features such as multi-factor authorization and technical support.
