LastPass main features

After installing the LastPass app from the Windows Store and logging in, you will notice that it consists of a control panel, where you can view your saved websites and all the information you have stored on your LastPass account. What information can you add to your account? Well, apart from usernames and passwords for any site, you can add the following information for increased productivity and ease of use all over the Internet:

Bank Account Credit Card Database Driver’s License Email Account Instant Messenger Membership Passport Server Social Security Software License Wi-Fi Password

All these different forms can be added to your account, and you can auto-fill them for just about any website without needing to type a word. Also, you can rest assured that your information is safe inside the LastPass vault and only accessible via the master password. But the fun doesn’t stop here!

LastPass for Windows 10: notable features

One of the features that I enjoy the most is the password generator. This tool allows you to generate full-proof passwords that no one could ever break. One great thing about this, is that most of the times, you don’t know the password (they are very, very complex), and the LastPass extension will auto-fill your username and password when you go to a saved website. Another interesting feature is that you can create groups to organize your different passwords and create login forms with usernames and passwords directly from the app. When you are done, visit the website with the integrated browser to test your password. Pretty simple, right? You can also edit saved websites, for instance, if you have changed your password, or, you can copy your username or password to the clipboard and use it somewhere else. All these tools integrate perfectly with the LastPass extension that can be installed on pretty much any device (computer, smartphone, or tablet), regardless of its operating system, so that you can have complete protection on all devices. These are all awesome features that each of us must use. To keep our digital lives safe, LastPass is a must-have in our security toolbox. But now, let’s recap the main features that the Windows 10 app provides:

Quick access to your saved passwords and forms Possibility to add multiple forms with important information Password generator both in-app and directly in the browser Edit and organize saved information integrated Internet browser

Now, look at all those features! One service spanning across all platforms and devices, that can be monitored and managed via a single app from your Windows 10 device! Isn’t this awesome? Just remember that this app is mostly a control panel, and for you to benefit from all the features that LastPass provides, you will need to install the extension on your Internet browser.
