I’ve used 1Password for about 15 years. I’m pretty happy with it and
I don’t really remember how much I pay for it since it’s something I
want to use. Back when I was running a small business it gave me some
control over the business passwords.
When Apple’s password manager came out, I stayed with iPassword since
my master password is over 25 characters — 5 random words and some
junk, but I need to enter very seldom — and it is now so ingrained
that it’s probably the last thing I’ll forget when I go gaga. I
enter it infrequently due to face recognition and Touch ID handling most
of the time. One reason I try to avoid Apple’s password manager is
that if someone gets into my phone or Apple ID, they have no limits to
those passwords. All my critical passwords are in 1Password and NOT in
Apple’s password manager.
But… it really doesn’t help with spam.

I use LastPass because I got a $1 a month for life deal. I’m almost

apple here, so I might move to their free one eventually. I use a pass
phrase that’s long and silly enough to make it pretty hard to guess.

As to avoid spam:
I just got a iphone, I am new to apple and ios:
Yesterday and not long ago got a note from apple saying someone
in..."SP"
(i think it said oO): to be honest: I only got: a I didn't catch
where
because it went away, but I did catch: warning from apple pls change
the
password:
Bet.
I really don't want to have to remember 9999999 passwords.
Reddit said: protonpass is good and I guess bitwarden is to. I tried
that
with android and wowza. Rough.
So I thought I'd ask: Do folks use a password manager? if so what's
good?
