When it comes to managing our passwords on a Mac, we have at our disposal a large number of solutions, practically all paid, except the Apple keychain, although this is only limited to web page passwords since it does not allow us to store other types of information.
Last month, LastPass announced that your free service would be limited to a single deviceTherefore, in order to continue using it, it was necessary, yes or yes, to make use of one of the different subscriptions it offers us. Yesterday, the date from which LastPass began to be paid, Dropbox announced that its password manager becomes free.
Dropox was one of the first cloud storage services to become popular across all ecosystems. However, as Google, Apple, and Microsoft have launched their cloud storage solutions, the company has been losing customers.
Far from crossing its arms, the company has been launching different solutions to retain your customers and attract new ones. The company launched a password manager last year, a manager that was only available to paying customers, but as of April, it will be free for everyone.
Half free, since so it will only allow you to store up to 50 passwords. If you exceed that number, you will have to opt for one of the different payment plans offered by the company. All Dropbox users will be able to use the password manager with automatic syncing on up to 3 devices.
The Dropbox password manager is very similar to the solution offered by both 1Password and LastPass, so if you are thinking of migrating your passwords to another platform, the change will not be traumatic.
Some rumors suggest that Apple could be working on a version with new features for the Keychain app, a service that is already available in the form of an extension for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge on Windows.
