@Giles I am going to continue on your "rant"...I'm tired of two factor authentication, password resets and passwords rejected as you used them previously (a longish time ago), back up emails, recovery emails, pin numbers (quick keys), cloud prompts, etc...

Then Laura has used me as recovery email notifications and I get her email stating someone is trying to get into her account.

Then Apple updated their latest Tahoe and I had to log back in this morning and remember a password that I rarely use...

Sorry, old guy yelling at the clouds...

@goosehd 1Password App is a game changer for this. Also means you don't run the risk of storing stuff in browser.

We use it at work for shared and personal passwords

I hear you though, I think my Dad resets his password for Netflix every time he is ever forced to login

[goosehd]

@AdamJ looking up the app now

Thank you and I will owe you a beer!! Cheers

@goosehd I'm probably going to move my browser over to Google Chrome, and I'll take advantage of the free password manager in there.

I was using Microsoft Authenticator, but they shut down the Android app a few months ago, so my devices aren't fully synched at the moment.

@Giles why don't you dive and get that phone back?

[Giles]

Because it was in 10 meters of water, so I reckoned it was toast.

[Giles]

Love 1Password....

In light of recent Password discussions…

@Giles guess it's too late now but would've really put the waterproof rating of the iPhone to the test if you did.

The guy in the Vodafone store reckoned it would have been OK. 15Pro.

@Giles wait until you see your bill and find a bottom feeder has butt dialed someone…

How did Mo get the phone?

[Giles]

Two more calls to Vodafone and 4 trips to the Vodafone store (thank God there is one in Gosport) and we have a new phone.......
