Then, there’s encryption and Two Factor Authentication. We spoke about this previously, but it’s an entirely different app. Edge and Authenticator do not have this, but Microsoft Teams for personal use does. If you’re not locked into the world of Microsoft, this might be an issue for you.įinally, LastPass has a feature that lets you keep Digital Records such as passports, driver’s licenses, WiFi Passwords, etc. That is unlike LastPass which works with a master LastPass password. Importantly, Edge and Authenticator depend on a Microsoft Account for syncing so you’ll need a Microsoft Account to sync between devices. Obviously, with Edge, your stored passwords from the web are locked into being stored Edge itself, unless you export as a CSV file that you can import into other web browsers (there’s a Chrome extension, though.) There’s a way around this, as you can just switch to using Edge on all your devices (since Edge is multi-platform.) Additionally, if you pair Edge with Authenticator, you can see your passwords directly in the Authenticator app on iOS and Android. You don’t need to “switch” your web browser to use it. It works in all the major web browsers as an extension, and as an app that will let you see saved passwords on iOS and Android. It’s important to note that LastPass is designed for different web browsers. I want to start this piece by making a note of what Edge and Authenticator can do, and what LastPass can’t, and vice versa.
