How do I manage my Settings in the LastPass app for Android?
You can change various settings for the mobile app for Android, including your LastPass account, security, autofill, search, browser, and advanced settings.

Your LastPass account
Select the Vault Menu icon in the upper-left of the screen, then go to . You can view your account email address and account type. If desired, select Account Settings to change your Master Password.
Security
Select the Vault Menu icon in the upper-left of the screen, then go to .
- Lock LastPass automatically allows you to set when LastPass will lock itself if sent to the background or if the screen is turned off. Accessing LastPass again will require either your master password or a PIN code. The sub options allow you to set a PIN code and modify the Reprompt Timer.
- Lock when app is idle allows you to select your desired timeout period.
- Lock when screen is turned off enables LastPass to lock itself if the screen turns off.
- Use fingerprint to unlock allows the user to unlock LastPass using their unique fingerprint on supported devices (initial setup instructions will vary by device). This is required in order to use mobile account recovery for Android.
- Check session when app is activated forces the app to check if the session has been terminated on the server when the LastPass app is brought to the foreground (after you’ve been using other apps); if so, LastPass will log off. This forces you to log in again, and forces an update from the server. This is a very useful feature for users who often terminate their sessions via the server, or are concerned about losing their mobile device.
- Skip reprompt after log in allows a user to log in to the LastPass app and perform an action that requires Master Password Reprompt without re-entering the master password. Please note that this feature only works if the user does not have the master password set to be remembered.
- Log out when app is idle allows you to set a time limit to ensure that your LastPass app logs off after X minutes of LastPass being logged in, but in the background of your device. This is another good security feature to use when concerned about the loss or theft of a mobile device
- Allow screenshots of this app allows you to choose whether screenshots can be taken while within the LastPass app.
- Allow offline access allows you to log into your locally cached data if you do not have access to an Internet connection (requires to have logged into the server at least once, and you have not disabled offline in your multifactor authentication options).

Search

- Allow web search from vault allows text entered into the Search/URL bar to be passed to Google as a search string when the vault is visible, but only after the search has been submitted (the user has select Enter). Security-conscious users may want to disable this feature to prevent vault search terms from ever being passed outside of the LastPass mobile app.
- Search Within Secure Notes allows you to search a specific entry saved or for a secure note by selecting the Search/URL bar while inside of the vault. Searches include the ability to search within the secure notes, instead of by title alone. Secure note content is not pre-decrypted in memory, so those users with numerous secure notes may see significant slow downs during their searches.
