I don't know if anybody uses Edge like me, but I feel like people should know that Edge with Authenticator works VERY WELL for password management. It is very close to feature parity with Lastpass and 1Password, it's cross platform, and it's free. After something like eight years, we dropped our subscription to LastPass.

How easy is it to use with random notes/apps on mobile? Some reasons I prefer a non-browser manager: - On Android/iOS, 1P will integrate with the system password manager APIs to sign in to apps - I can generate/store arbitrary password-like things (SSH key passwords, secret question made up answers, 2FA backup codes) that are not associated with specific domains. At least in Chrome's default password manager there wasn't a way to do something like this.

On iOS, at least, when prompted for auto-fill, you can random search for other passwords. It doesn't really have a "notes" field, but you can definitely save a password without an affiliated website.
