Tip: We recommend using the following best practices when creating your master password:

Use a minimum of 12 characters, but the lengthier the better
Use upper case, lower case, numeric, and special character values
Make it memorable, but not easily guessed (e.g., a passphrase)
Make sure that it is unique only to you
Don't use personal information
Don't use sequential characters (for example, "1234") or repeated characters (for example, "aaaa")
Make sure you don't use your master password for any other account or application

Results: You have successfully reset your master password using biometrics in the LastPass app for iOS.

What to do next: Create new Recovery One Time Passwords on trusted devices (strongly recommended)

Create new Recovery One Time Passwords for account recovery (in case your master password is ever forgotten) by doing the following:

Log out of LastPass on every trusted computer and/or mobile device where you have installed LastPass and accessed your LastPass vault. You can check your active sessions for all devices.
Log back in with your new master password.

What to do next: If you are using a public/untrusted computer (recommended)

Clear the browser cache on all web browsers where you accessed LastPass in order to clear the Recovery One Time Password that was created from accessing the LastPass website.

What to do next: If you use temporary, one-time passwords (optional)

Generate new temporary, one-time passwords because all OTPs you generated previously are now invalidated and no longer listed due to your vault being re-encrypted from your master password change.
