How to use LastPass autofill
The browser extension is the key to autofill on any desktop or laptop browser. So always download LastPass to your browser. The browser extension allows LastPass to "see" what page you're on and help you with any fields on that page. If you've stored one or more logins for that webpage, LastPass will autofill for you. Filling credentials, completing a signup form, making a purchase, creating a new password - LastPass can detect them all and offer the right action at the right time. As you sign in, LastPass fills your username and password. As you sign up, LastPass fills your name, address, birthdate, and other requested details. As you make a purchase, LastPass enters your payment card information and billing/shipping addresses. As you create a new password, LastPass offers the password generator and stores the new password. If you have more than one login or payment card to choose from, click the LastPass in-field icon to scroll and find the information you want to use. Clicking the entry you need tells LastPass to autofill that information. A task that would typically take seconds or minutes is reduced to a click to autofill the correct information at the right time. By downloading the LastPass extension to all browsers on all desktops/laptops you regularly use, you can sync all data stored in your account and autofill everywhere you browse.
When you click on the password field, a pop-up will appear with your login details for the site or app. Simply click on the pop-up and your passwords will be autofilled.
If you have a layer of authentication enabled, like Touch ID or Windows Hello, you’ll be asked to authenticate before your login details are autofilled.
