I've love to switch away from LastPass. I switched to LastPass Families when it came out due to their "digital contingency plan" so family members (or the trusted family attorney) can get access to passwords rather conveniently if I or another family member passes away. At the time, I didn't see that other offerings made this as easy. Any other good options out there for this use case?

Just store your master password in your spouse's vault and make sure they know where the vault is stored if you use an offline tool/service.

This of course assumes you are comfortable knowing that they could access your accounts while you're still alive if they wanted to, and trusting that they won't.

Allow me to plug my own product: https://padloc.app The new version (currently in beta) has a "Family" plan which is perfect for this. We're also planning to introduce a "dead man's switch" feature that will grant access to selected family members or friends if you haven't logged into your account for a while. Shoot me an email at [e-mail] if you're interested in signing up for the beta!

1Password has a Families plan for this.

I will look into this. I do trust certain family members with access to my vault password, but the notification of access and ability to give access to a trusted third party (my lawyer) that is available with LP is very compelling.

1Password allows you to add family members with access to specific values either read-only or read/write. The system for adding access is multi-step so unless you add someone to a vault they shouldn’t see, you have the flexibility to share as little or as much as you want. Since you can name the vaults you can name them things like “Shared with M Toussant (Attorney)” or “Samir Martha and Paul” which can make it easy to determine where to store what secrets. Have been using Business for a few years with some of my companies and Family with my family and have had good experiences. You can initiate recoveries as the administrator as well which has been helpful in both cases.

I use BitWarden for this. If it's just you and a partner, their free version works. If you have a larger set of people you want to share sets of credentials with (up to 5), the family version is $1/mo.

It's not exactly the same as LastPass' "contingency plan" feature (since you're simply sharing some credentials all the time), but it works well enough for me.
