And then...

The password manager can't fill the form. You've got to change your 10-word, unique passphrase because it's 3 months old. And you have to verify with a text.

Oh and then you have to type it in on your TV with a remote and on-screen keyboard.

Also you better hope you used the password manager for this obscure app you don't remember signing up with.

It used a different URL for sign in so isn't picked up by the password manager.

The password is too strong doesn't accept Ukraine letters.

Dose your granny have the a password manager. She should but would she understand how it works.
