Does the free version of Lastpass allow you to use fingerprint authentication on a mobile device?
LastPass Biometrics and Password Reset
Using biometric access on new device
Fingerprint unlock not working in apps on Android 10
Their website is quite confusing, under premium it has listed in the multi-factor section that fingerprint reader is a pro in premium. But upon researching online that I found that it may just be for biometrics in Windows. My question is does the free version of Lastpass gives you android fingerprint or iOS touch ID support?
Yes.
The premium fingerprint "MFA" (which it isn't) is only for Windows desktop.
on ios touchid/faceid is not mfa, it is just replacement for password/short pin (for you to get access faster), you can choose to input full password every time or shorten it to pin/touchid/faceid
as it is not mfa it simply works on any version of lastpass
I can log into lastpass on my phone with my fingerprint because I enabled biometrics but, because I've been using my finger so long I have forgotten my master password. I want to change it since I have access to the account and I'm logged in (verified) by fingerprint but it still wants my old password. Is there anyway to reset the master password if you don't have the old password but still can get in with your fingerprint? I once had biometics stop working on my phone and had to delete the entire account. I don't want that to ever happen again but need to add a lot of important passwords. I'm not going to use Lastpass if it's possible losing my phone or whatever means I lose ALL my passwords. Any ideas?
So, apologies if this is a dumb question but, I lost my old phone and conveniently can't seem to find where I wrote down my master password. This is a bit of a long shot, I know but, is there any way to log into lastpass on my new phone via fingerprint without having to actually log in and enable it? In my mind, it's conceivable that they could have my fingerprint on record or something. Like I said, longshot, I know. anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, I promise, I have exhausted every other avenue of account recovery, otherwise I wouldn't be here, trust
When I am in a browser, for example, and I try to log in to a website, the LastPass box appears as expected and prompts me for my fingerprint. It will not accept my fingerprint at all and after a few tries will log me out of my account.
If I instead minimize the browser and open the LastPass app directly, it will again prompt my for my fingerprint, but it works perfectly.
In other words, the little popup box for LastPass's autofill feature does not seem to be able to use biometrics unlock on my phone. It only works if I open up the full LastPass app.
Anyone else have this problem, or know how to fix it?
edit: in light of the recent changes in pricing, I switched to BitWarden and the Android app works perfectly. The import process was also seamless. Much happier with BitWarden.
