LastPass is a password manager that stores website logins, generates strong unique passwords, and autofills them through browser extensions and mobile apps. Everything is encrypted locally using a master password before syncing, so LastPass itself cannot read stored passwords. The free plan covers unlimited password storage and autofill with device-type sync restrictions; the paid Premium and Families plans add syncing across all device types together, encrypted file storage and advanced multi-factor options.
LastPass Free vs. Premium: What Changes
The free LastPass plan lets you store and autofill unlimited passwords, but historically restricts syncing to one device type at a time — for example, all your computers or all your phones, but not a mix of both, depending on the current plan terms. Upgrading to LastPass Premium removes that limit, syncing across all devices, and adds features like encrypted file attachments, emergency access and priority tech support.

How to download LastPass safely
Use the request button on this page and we will email you the current link for www.lastpass.com — the publisher's own website — so you receive the authentic build. We do not host, mirror, patch or repackage this software in any way.
Avoid third-party "download manager" sites offering LastPass. They commonly wrap the genuine installer in their own bundler, which is how adware and browser hijackers get onto a machine that the user believed was clean.
