Dashlane problem

Options
Good morning compers. I have just started using Dashlane on my android tablet and I must say I've been impressed. The only problem is it turns all the boxes yellow so is this reducing my chances of winning? Will the companies see the yellow boxes and think it's cheating? Any opinions would be helpful as I've only been comping since December.

    This thread might be helpful (and there is also a link to another helpful thread in one of my posts in this one...):

    You may find more threads - I found that one by searching 'yellow boxes' and others came up.

    I haven't heard of Dashlane - only Roboform and LastPass - but I'm sure someone else here will be able to offer more specific advice on that particular app :)

    Great advice! Thankyou.The other problem is I'm on a 30 day trial and when that runs out then I'm not sure if I'm prepared to pay for it but I find it easier to use than the other ones you mentioned. I'd forgotten that I had joined a thread about this awhile ago but I still felt unsure what to do.

    Dashlane has free and paid for versions the same as Roboform and Lastpass.

    If you only use one machine to enter or if you use more than one machine but are happy to set each one up by typing your details in to dashlane instead of downloading them from the "cloud" you don't really need the paid version.

    Extras with the paid version are

    Secure Account Backup
    Sync across all your devices
    Web access to all your passwords
    Priority support
  • That's great then as I only want to use it on my tablet so thanks Mjm3346. Do you use an autofill system where the boxes are yellow?

    If a form fills in with a form filler I use it (yellow or not), I don't keep a note of them so I cannot say if yellow has averaged more or less wins than plain forms.

    If they don't want to allow autofill entries they can pick them off by having hidden triggers that form fillers set off on the entry page (I really don't think many if any do).
