I've grown really fond of lastpass, it's a really useful app on my macbook and of course I wanted to try it on my iphone, but I was disappointed to find out that it pretty much just works on safari, there's not a single app that uses it, instagram, facebook, twitter , loooks like none of them have support for lastpass, what's the point then?

I downloaded 1password too and it was the same, is there a limitation behind this behaviour? Or we just need to wait for developers to integrate 1pssword/lastpass with their apps? :confused:

I'm not sure, but it could be lack of support from other app developers. Personally the way I use 1password is by going in and doing copy+paste. Usually my apps remember the password.

Some apps will work with 1Password and here is a list:

I use 1Password the same way. Works fine for me.
I do the same for mine too, not a big deal at all. Most apps will remember it anyweays and you just need to input the password once

The point is always subjective. If the point for you is to only use the app then, yes, it probably is pointless for you. I find plenty of point in using the 1Password browser when an app doesn't support 1Password.
 
I use launch centre pro and a custom script I found on Macstories to retrieve any stored password I want. A little hackish, I know, but still easier than having to manually launch the app. :p

For my Chase Bank app, as an example, i just go to ipassword and copy my password and paste.
 
I use Dropbox + PassDrop all the time on my iPhone.

It's far from useless. It also cost nowhere near what that 1password garbage costs.
 
Do you happen to have a link to that article ? I would like to try this myself. Thanks.
