As well as unlimited passwords, this also includes 2TB of cloud storage for your smartphone and laptop back-ups, file transfers of up to 2TB, as well as the ability to remotely wipe lost or stolen devices – while ensuring everything remains backed-up in the cloud via Dropbox. Just as LastPass nerfs the free tier of its popular password manager, Dropbox has swooped in with a free version of its own password app- but theres a bit of a catch. And since you use a unique password for every account, even if your login details are leaked online there’s no risk to your other online accounts.įor those who want to store more than 50 account details within Dropbox, you’ll need to pay £7.99 a month for Dropbox Plus. Some password managers will proactively lookout for breaches to websites you use – so you’re alerted to change your login as quickly as possible.
Many password managers allow users to login using biometric sensors, like fingerprint and facial scanners, too, which means there is even less to remember. You only need to remember a single password to login to your vault of passwords, with the application doing all the rest of the work – including filling in your login credentials on websites and within apps. Password managers are designed to create unique, randomly generated passwords for each of your online accounts. Keen to not make the same misstep as LastPass, Dropbox even goes out of its way to say users will be able to "access" the password list from "anywhere”.
