How do I manage my Trusted Devices in Account Settings?

Multifactor authentication is a security feature that can be enabled for protection against unauthorized access to your account. If you're using a personal device that is only used by you, and you follow general security best practices (e.g., run anti-virus service, avoid accessing suspicious links, etc.), you can choose to "trust" your device, which skips the multifactor authentication prompt for 30 days.

If you want to rename a trusted device, click on the Edit icon , type a new name into the Label field, then click the Save icon to save your changes.

Trust a device

Skip multifactor authentication from a specific device that you trust for 30 days (but still be prompted on other devices).

To trust a device, do the following:
Note: These steps must be completed on every device that you want to mark as trusted.
  1. Log in to LastPass from the trusted device you want to skip multifactor authentication prompts.
  2. When prompted by multifactor authentication, check the box to enable the Trust this < device > for 30 days option.

    Attention: If you are not prompted with this option, it means either you have not enabled multifactor authentication or you have already set this device as trusted.

This device is now listed in your Trusted Devices.
