1446456 2018-02-18 20:20:00 I just put all my passwords into a pass protected word doc.

Important often used passwords (banking) : I make them something easy for me to remember : 2short words & a year combined into 1 password is easy to remember

1446457 2018-02-18 20:28:00 I would not like to use one, as to me its just one extra level of complication and risk.

It depends, between work and personal use I have dozens of different logins I need to manage many requiring regular password changes and on cycles that don't line up. For some work applications I need to log in up to 4 separate times with 2 different 2 factor authentications just to get to one program, and that is not an exaggeration.
What that means is there are far more logins than I can hope to remember so I have to record them somewhere. The back page of the exercise book on my desk is not a particularly secure way to store passwords but it was my preferred method for ages.

At least with KeePass everything is encrypted and you can make it pretty secure if you want to, it's not at all complicated to use and the risk is lower than the alternatives for me. Plus it's easily edited whenever a password changes and by using dropbox for the password file I don't have to update it again for the smartphone and PC.

1446459 2018-02-20 20:47:00 I use the free version of LastPass, remembering one password is great for my aging brain and it's easy to use. Occasionally a site won't auto Launch, usually due to my missing a detail when setting it up. bellbird (6169)
1446460 2018-02-21 01:14:00 I'm a LastPass user as well. I've used for years and it works really well for me. Tony (4941)
1446461 2018-02-21 01:45:00 Been using "Sticky Password for a year or so, never had a problem. Arnie (6624)
1446462 2018-02-23 22:31:00 I have recently started using KeePass & KeePass Droid.
They seem to work ok together.
I saved the database to OneDrive so it could be accessed anywhere.
Noticed when accessing it from android it says you can only view but not edit the files.
I guess that's because it was setup through windows.
