https //www.lastpass.com Login : LastPass | Password Manager & Vault App Login
To log in to LastPass, you have a couple of options:
- Web Login: Visit the LastPass Sign In page and enter your email and master password. Make sure your Caps Lock is off. If you’ve forgotten your password, you can recover it using your email address.
- One-Time Passcode: Alternatively, you can log in using a one-time passcode. If you’re having trouble with your regular login, enter the one-time passcode associated with your account from the LastPass MFA app. If needed, you can request a new activation email to verify your email address here.
Remember, LastPass is an online password manager and form filler that enhances web browsing security.
LastPass encrypts information client side and has a zero-knowledge policy, so if anyone does hack into LastPass servers, they will only see encrypted information. The only way for anyone to access your sensitive data is to find out your master password, which can be done in many ways.
What is a password manager?
At home and work, you have more online accounts that you can possibly remember. And since 81% of breaches are caused by weak or reused passwords, it’s essential that each account have a unique password. So how are you supposed to remember these strong, unique passwords? You can’t. But a password manager can.
A password manager is a tool that does the work of creating, remembering and filling in passwords. Simply log into an online account for the first time and LastPass will store your username and password so every time you go back your credentials will be filled in automatically
How do I set up all account recovery options for LastPass?
Once you have created your LastPass account, it is strongly recommended that you set up and configure all account recovery options so that you can regain access to your LastPass vault if your master password is ever forgotten. These recovery options can be configured at any time during the life of your LastPass account.
Recovery Option #1: Log in to LastPass from your desktop
When you log in to LastPass from your desktop, you create a locally-stored Recovery One Time Password on each web browser where you log in, which can be used in the account recovery process if you ever forget your master password.
A Recovery One Time Password is something that is created for you automatically when you log in to LastPass via the web browser extension and/or online web vault (i.e., the LastPass website), and is not something you can write down.
Note: For more information about the Recovery One Time Password, see What is a Recovery One Time Password in LastPass?- Log in to your online web vault (via the LastPass website) – This login method can be used if you cannot install the LastPass browser extension locally. Logging in by accessing your online web vault (via the LastPass login page) from multiple browsers will store the Recovery One Time Password locally in each browser’s local storage so that it can be used for account recovery (as long as you have not cleared your browser’s local storage since the last time you logged in to LastPass).
Warning: If you are using a public or untrusted computer, we recommend that you Use Temporary (One-Time) Passwords to log in to LastPass instead of the LastPass website. If you do log in to the LastPass website on a public or untrusted computer, be sure to clear the cache of the web browser on which you accessed LastPass before you leave the computer (in order to clear the Recovery One Time Password that was captured from your login session). - Log in via the LastPass browser extension (recommended) – This login method is recommended so that you can manage extension settings and preferences to customize the way you want to use LastPass only on devices that you trust. Additionally, logging in using the extension creates an encrypted cache of your vault data locally, and generates a Sharing Key for creating and using shared folders (if applicable).It is encouraged that you log in via the extension on multiple web browsers (as often as you can), and, if possible, from multiple devices that you trust, which will store the Recovery One Time Password locally in the LastPass extension’s repository for each browser. Additionally, logging in from multiple trusted devices ensures that you have multiple Recovery One Time Passwords.
Recovery Option #2: Set up mobile account recovery on iOS or Android
- Download the LastPass Password Manager app (download for iOS | download for Android)
- Log in to the app and set up mobile account recovery (see instructions for iOS | see instructions for Android)
Important: Regardless of how you use LastPass (desktop app, web browser extension, mobile app), you are strongly encouraged to set up Touch ID/Fingerprint or Face ID/Face Unlock so that you can use mobile account recovery for iOS or Android, allowing you to reset your master password using biometrics from that device. Even if you decide that you will never use the LastPass Password Manager mobile app, setting up mobile account recovery on your current mobile device acts as a safety net in which you can reset your master password using biometrics.Recovery Option #3: Manage your master password Reminder
- View your existing master password Reminder
- Change your master password to create a new hint
Recovery Option #4: Set up SMS account recovery
You can set up SMS account recovery by adding a mobile number to your account to receive a verification text message that is used in the account recovery process in case you ever forget your master password.
Important: To complete the steps for account recovery, a valid Recovery One Time Password is required, which is created when you log in to the LastPass web browser extension and/or online web vault on your desktop and have not cleared your cache.Follow the steps to Set Up SMS Account Recovery for LastPass.
