Use this interactive demo to learn how to disable LastPass autofill on your device.

‍

This tutorial shows you how to turn off automatic credential filling in LastPass so it no longer populates login fields without your input.

Note: Disabling autofill stops LastPass from filling credentials automatically, but it does not hide the LastPass icon inside login fields. To stop the inline prompt from appearing, see How to Stop LastPass from Popping Up.

Click the LastPass icon in your browser toolbar to open the extension menu.
Click the Account gear icon and click the Extension settings pop-up.
Locate the General section and toggle off Automatically fill login information.‍
Click Save to apply the change.

📌 Why this matters

Disabling autofill gives you control over when and where your credentials appear, which is especially valuable on shared computers or when demonstrating software to others. You can still access your saved passwords through the extension menu when needed, but they won't accidentally populate during screen recordings, presentations, or when someone else is watching your screen. This approach also reduces the risk of filling credentials on phishing sites that mimic legitimate login pages, since you'll manually verify each site before entering sensitive information.
