Does anyone have experience using LastPass on Android?

 

I use it with chrome on my PC and really like it. But I'm hesitant to use it on Android sit appears you need to use their browser. And I don't think the app works directly with the other apps so you are still manually entering the passwords into apps, which isn't too bad.

 

Also if anyone has feedback about integrating Google two factor authentication with it I would be curious.

There is an option in LastPass to copy the password and username in the notification area when you select it. So when I browse to a site in chrome and it asks for a password, a copy paste from the notification area.

 

Or there is an option to set LastPass as a keyboard, but I prefer the notification area trick.

I use the Google Authenticator to log into LastPass on my desktop, and use the "Add copy notifications" on my mobile. It's great because the tab for entering the Google Auth code pops up when I open the browser, but if that tab is closed it reverts to asking for the full password.

 

I use a gingerbread based ROM and the LastPass keyboard stopped working so well a few updates ago (eating up internal memory), but being able to copy from the notification area was always better, anyway. Just remember to copy and enter the password first, so your username is what is left in the clipboard. Very worth it for me, especially because all of my passwords are so hairy.

I use the Google Authenticator with LastPass. Never had any issues with it on on desktop or phone.

 

The LastPass browser on phones stinks (both iOS and Android). However, as Mark Rodriguez mentioned, the Dolphin browser is a great option for Android users. I use Chrome for standard browsing and Dolphin + LastPass addon for "secure" browsing. If Chrome didn't synch so well with the desktop and Google services, I'd probably use Dolphin for everything.
