Hi,

 

I'm a former user of Dashlane, and I'm using Lastpass now essentially because of its Family plan.

I'm using it intensively, because I'm accessing a lot of different sites, personally and professionally, all the day, switching from one to another.

 

When Lastpass suggests logins for a site, if there are several logins available, you need either to scroll down with the mouse to look for the right login, either to click on the search field and then type your search string and then clic on the right  proposal. 

This is painful ... you need to switch between mouse and keyboard several times.

 

What I suggests :

- When Lastpass proposes the list of logins, it could put the cursor in the search field directly, which allow you to type immediately a search string.

- Then it would be great to continue using the keyboard : 

  1. If there is only one suggestion (which is the most frequent case), keying ENTER would select this suggestion
  2. If there are still several suggestions, being able to use the TAB key to go to the first one, then the second (or with the down arrow key) and then Enter when ok.

Hoping this will help !

Thanks and kind regards,

Fred

I would also love to have that feature. I'm a software developer and constantly switching between mouse and keyboard is wasting me time and increases the stress on my arms.

 

I'm currently able to open the selection of passwords with the `arrow down` key and would love to be able to selected the login I want with the arrow keys and then hit enter to fill in the login.
