I've been using Nordpass for 2 or 3 months now and can't quite make my mind up whether it's a help or a hindrance...anyone else use a password manager, good, bad, wish you hadn't bothered?

I use ewallet because it syncs between my phone and laptop so doesn't matter which one I'm using, I just do a synch to refresh. I have all sorts of crap in it, web logins, passport details, driving license etc.

Yea the Nordpass does all but really the problem is me, I deleted the app from my phone because I was unsure about the syncing, I'll get on top of it soon-ish. It does make sense to use it properly shy

yes, I use it constantly on both, far too many passwords to remember bigsmile and my memory not what it used to be

Tell me about it, I used to remember all my password and stuff like that but now, nah.
I've gotten way more conscious of protecting my stuff and privacy of late, I use an encrypted email service for anything financial now...a vpn next I think bigsmile

I store my passwords on three drives all bitlocker protected and the excel sheet is password protected.
yep I know excel passwords can easily be broken with some vb code "I have the code lol" just in case.
With 127 active accounts (used within last 12 months) memory is not up to the trick. Any account not used for 12 months I asked for it to be deleted under GDPR where possible.

127 shockbigsmile
After starting out being very distrusting of it I've gotten used to the PW manager now, I didn't like not being in full control of everything at first but I have to admit that it makes life so much easier. Fingers cross Nord never gets hacked shy

Couldn't work without one, as well as my own passwords to manage, we have a lot of work credentials to use too. At work we use Remote Desktop Manager by https://devolutions.net/ excellent application.
