How To Export Passwords From LastPass To Another Password Manager?
When it comes to password managers, LastPass is considered one of the best password managers to get rid of the manual process of remembering passwords. What makes LastPass a favorite choice amongst users is its free plan under which you can access features like saving passwords, saving form fills, saving card details, and more.
However, recently, LastPass announced a change in its free plan. Starting from March 16, it will allow only one device under the free plan. It means free users will be restricted from using the features of the password manager either on a smartphone or on a PC (one at a time). This announcement is upsetting for those who have passwords saved in the app.
Thankfully, there are alternatives that you can use to replace LastPass. Before you switch to any other password manager, you need to export your saved passwords from LastPass. Below, we’ve enlisted the steps to export passwords from LastPass to other password managers. It’s a fairly easy process with simple steps to follow.
