My old password manager had a weird bug last month that locked me out for a day.

I was trying to log into my bank on a Tuesday morning and the manager's auto-fill just stopped working. It turned out an update had broken the browser extension on Chrome. I had to go find my printed emergency sheet, which I thankfully keep in a safe, and manually type in a 20-character password. Has anyone else had a password manager fail on them like that?

Happened with my old one too. Switched to a different service and haven't looked back. That's the worst feeling.

Honestly same, I ditched mine after the third time it crashed like that.

Ditched mine after it locked up mid-sync and I lost a whole week of data. Total nightmare. Switched to something that actually backs up locally too now, just in case. Makes a world of difference when you know your stuff is safe.
