I use it with copy/paste. Yes, it is slightly annoying, but actually
not that bad (I use iOS). Essentially, instead of typing in the
password into the app that I want to use, which I may have to struggle
to remember, or copy from a paper, I just go to LastPass app, type in
my master password, and then I can copy/paste the password to the other
app. I rarely use the browser part of it.
In the last year, the app has been so much improved, it's actually not
a chore to use.
Integrating it with the phone's default browser may help a bit, but
typically, online accounts have their own app for their site. The only
way to integrate it that would be useful is to integrate it with the OS
itself.

On Android they recently added support for auto-fill in any Android app
(it uses the accessibility framework to accomplish this). It even works
on random sites in Chrome for Android.
As much as I wish this could happen on iOS, I am a bit wary of allowing
applications to affect all password text boxes in the OS.
I honestly don't mind the copy-paste routine, especially since they made
it so you don't have to double-enter your master password.
