How do you remember your, mom, dad passwords ?
My mom dad usually forget their email, internet banking sometimes atm card’s password. I also forget lot of passwords of emails, internet banking etc… Are any good password managers available for free?

Good thing is that it is open source.

That's the best!
Something I learnt from my dad. It’s old school. Writing my passwords in diary. Both me and my spouse share it and only we know where we keep the diary at home.
Yup we do this too. Very safe and you can keep updating the password. We have a few fail safe procedures as well.

Fail safe procedure in case the dairy is lost right or for any other situation?
I've been using Dashlane for a few years. Its expensive though - ~450 a month.
Other options are: 1Password or Bitwarden which are a big cheaper.

Cap here:
Go with bitwarden. It’s free and opensource. And for the backup I also use protonpass, it’s a secondary choice. Never ever use the browsers built-in pass managers.
It’ll be easier for parents to autofill the password from either of these sites. Just that they should remember the vault password.

How's protonpass? I like that it also offers 2FA compared to BW, but don't like having all my eggs in one basket.

Mostly, I use both. Whichever is easier, depends on the site. Protonpass do have 2FA setup, and icon comes right at the username-password fillup area.
But I’ll pass the 2FA from proton, I prefer other authenticators for that purpose. It’s too much risky to rely on, you lose your account everything is gone.

Bad idea, not encrypted and anyone who can gain access to your phone or cloned SIM can get all passwords.

I keep a diary with written down passwords for mom, dad is tech savvy he manages for himself, also use notes app to save commonly used passwords like Facebook - YouTube.
Also don't have any netbanking app installed in mom's phone, no credit card added to her Apple id, it should be really difficult to scam from her.
No trust in auto fill password 😅

Dude , use the simple method
Excel sheet in G drive. Note down every account with user id and password. Use the lock version so that only you and your parents are privy to it.
This will help both you and parents to sync at any point.

This is so horribly insecure on so many levels. No wonder cyber crime is on the rise.

Use lastpass. Its free for mobile devices. Have been using for sometime now. Works like a charm.
i try to memorise PIN as patterns on a keypad and I am good at retaining that in my head
