LastPass Now Auto-Fills Login Info for Your Android Apps

The most recent LastPass app for Android adds an incredible new feature: now, it can autofill your login and password information for you, both in Chrome and in other Android apps.

Previously, the LastPass app only allowed you to view your passwords or use them inside the LastPass browser, but now it works more like it does on the desktop. When you launch an app or open a web site in Chrome, it'll check if you have an account and autofill your information for you. If it doesn't detect the app properly, you can help it associate the correct account with the app to help make the app better for others. These features work on Android 4.3 and above, though 4.1 and 4.2 users can get the option to copy their password, which at least makes things a little faster than before.

Just install or update the Android app, then enable the feature when prompted. Check out the video above from LastPass to see it in action. You can trial the app for two weeks, after which it will require a LastPass Premium subscription as it always has (which is only $12 per year—well worth it for what you get).

LastPass Now Tells You Which Heartbleed-Affected Passwords to Change

This week, a giant security hole came to light that affects a large portion of the internet. As different sites recover, you'll need to change your passwords, and now LastPass tells you when to do so.

Due to the nature of the Heartbleed bug (read more here), you'll need to wait until affected sites update their infrastructure before you change your passwords. LastPass' ever-useful Security Check tool now includes recommendations for Heartbleed, letting you know which sites have closed the hole, when, and if you should update yet.

To run the tool, just click on the LastPass extension and head to Tools > Security Check. After running the tool, you'll get the results (shown above) so you know what passwords to change. Hit the link to read more.
