It is safe to say that one reason LastPass is one of the most popular password managers is the array of available features included in its free subscription. However, that is about to change in the coming weeks as the company announced product changes that will specifically affect non-paying users.
LastPass free: What's changing in the coming weeks
With more daily transactions and activities happening online in recent years, especially in 2020, password managers have become more useful to many people worldwide. But people using the free version of LastPass should brace for significant changes taking place on the app next month.
People using the free version of LastPass can only use the password manager on one device type starting March 16, the company said in a Tuesday blog post. It means they will have to choose to either access the app either through its mobile or desktop app. The default or active device type will be set based on non-premium users' first LastPass login from March 16 onward.
Users will then be given up to three chances to change their default device type from their first login on or after the said date. "Please note, that all of your devices sync automatically, so you'll never lose access to anything stored in your vault or be locked out of your account," LastPass said.
On the bright side, people using LastPass Free are, technically, not losing "unlimited" access to the app. But that perk is just being restricted to one device type. If their default device type is mobile, they can still have their LastPass account opened on several smartphones, wearables, or tablets. The same goes for those opting to use the app on desktop computers and laptops. Also, note that web browser plug-ins for the password manager will count under the computer device type.
Access to email support will also be limited to Premium and Family plan subscribers starting May 17. LastPass Free users will have to rely on the app's Support Center, which is practically just a more comprehensive FAQ, and ask questions from other users and moderators of the LastPass Community forum.
LastPass premium pricing: Why users might want to consider it
The free version of anything is obviously a top choice for most people, but those who can add another paid subscription to their budget might want to consider LastPass Premium as well. With the upcoming changes, LastPass is offering a limited-time promo for Free users allowing them to switch to a Premium plan for a $2.25/month fee instead of the regular price of $3, billed annually.
