1Password Family edition. $48.00 yearly.
+1. I keep my very sensitive passwords on a USB drive (paper backup in safe), it’s uncommon but commercial password managers have been hacked. But all the rest are managed by Apple. Apple also generates “strong” 16 character passwords - so my passwords are much stronger than in my PC days.If you’re in the Apple ecosystem, you can use the built-in password manager. It securely shares passwords across your various Apple devices (iPhone, Mac, iPad, Apple TV).
Works great if you only use Apple devices...

KeePass. Open-source. No cloud. There's a port for Android. I sync the database manually along with other things I keep in sync, so no big deal.
I bailed on LastPass and sneaky DashLane tried to weasel a subscription fee out of me, then settled on KeePass-XC and KeePass-XC-browser.I use KeePassXC on various operating systems. Works on Linux and Windows and others.
I can simply copy the encrypted database to a thumb drive and take it with me on travel. My laptop has the software to open the database.
No cloud server sitting there waiting for smart teams of hackers to attack.
I like the password generator, the categories of sites I can create, ease of use....
Yes. For many years now. I use lengthy, random character passwords. no way can i remember them....
1. Do you use a password manager?
Roboform Everywhere. works everywhere....Our windows computers, iPhones, iPad and interfaces with the major browsers. https://www.roboform.com2. Which One?
Love it.3. Do you like it?
yes, ~$23 p/y. well worth it. there is a free version for trial.4. (bonus question) Do you pay for it, and how much?
Not sure, one (2014) source stated 31 characters, another stated 250 characters? I’m good with 16 for now.is that a limitation by Apple ?
One of my password sites allows 50 character passwords, so mine is a random 49 character password
Conversely I have a bank that limits passwords to 6 characters

Lastpass allows you to export your information + passwords to a file which I do about once per year. I put this on a memory stick which is stored away.
A few days ago DW accidentally overwrote one of my passwords. I was able to get the old one back easily by referring to the saved file.
LastPass lets you see your past passwords - to the right of the "Site Password" is an icon of a clock with a counter clockwise arrow. This will show all your old passwords for that site.
Well so far it seems about equal split among favorites between lastpass, 1password, and keepass. Then a smaller fraction of users for others.
Thanks for the information, I'm still deciding which to go with.

For those that tried LastPass free version and then upgraded to LastPass paid, is the upgrade worth it?
