My wife & I use one. We have to remember the one pw to get into it so we are responsible for keeping they one secure.

Besides that, we share the database so either of us can get into any pw stored in the manager at any time. We don’t need that feature often, but when we do it much more convenient to look it up rather than search for her or call her.

When we setup a new pw we can generate up to 40 characters. We can select whether to use special characters and which types, passwords I could never remember.

It’s not absolutely secure, but it is exponentially more secure than we would be without it.
