With the LastPass app for iOS, it’s easy and stress-free because your password is stored and accessible wherever you are, so you never miss another payment.
For iOS 8 and above, LastPass syncs all of your passwords and stored data across all your iOS devices, including your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and iPod Touch. You no longer have to worry about when and where you're able to access your accounts. Extend your LastPass experience to all your devices, and enjoy easy access to your passwords no matter where you are, or which account you need. Download
LastPass for iOS in the App Store, and follow these steps to start making the most of your LastPass experience:

Tap the button in the top right corner to add new entries for your accounts right after you create them, and backup sensitive information as soon as you get it.

Enable Touch ID 
Simplify your LastPass experience, and enable Touch ID to enter your vault faster than ever before. First, find
Touch ID & Passcode in iOS settings to make sure Touch ID is already enabled for your device. Next, log in to LastPass and tap the Settings icon at the bottom of the screen. Under Settings, tap Security, and enable 'Use Touch ID' to get started. Now whenever you want to access your vault, you can scan your fingerprint in place of entering your master password.

Launch sites from LastPass browser
For quick access to your accounts, launch websites straight from the app through the LastPass Browser. You can launch the browser from each individual entry, or tap the browser icon at the bottom of the screen to enter a URL. As the fastest route to your information, the LastPass browser is the perfect option for when you need to quickly check on your account balance, or see when the next cable bill is due.
