    I ran across this guy’s explanation of password manager vaults and he does a very good job of covering all the bases in easy to understand language. If you still practice dangerous password habits I encourage you to give it a read.

    Any decent free password cracking program will find those before you can blink.

    The iOS password manager is pretty decent. The ability to require biometrics to gain access is a pretty solid step up from having to recall a master password. I played with LastPass, but the MacOS password vault is pretty well integrated into the OS. I like that if you have old passwords, it'll tell you that they're either easy to hack or have appeared in a data leak. That's gold.
