Sticky Password is very easy to use. For example, using the Wi-Fi sync option was a bit tricky at first. I had to ensure both the PC and mobile app were open with Wi-Fi sync turned on, and then I had to wait for my PC to connect to my mobile.
Finally, my devices were connected and my data was synced across pretty quickly. Overall, it was a pretty long-winded process. In comparison, synchronizing my data using the cloud sync option was easy — all I had to do was enable cloud sync on the PC app and on the mobile app, and all the data was automatically transferred.
The browser extension was a bit difficult to set up — I had to navigate to the settings of my Sticky Password desktop app to be redirected to the extension installation page, as opposed to simply downloading it from the Chrome Web Store like with the best password managers for Chrome.
That said, the browser extension was easy for me to use and understand once I had it installed. It made saving and auto-filling my passwords and logins easy. When I used the browser extension on Chrome, it offered to save or input my login credentials any time I wanted to sign into an online account.
The browser extension also offered to save my personal information as a new identity entry when filling in web forms. I also liked the This Website feature that let me view or change credentials for each site I was on. However, I would like to see Sticky Password add an option to share secure notes like most other premium password managers do, including Dashlane.

All of the explanations in the FAQs are very clear and easy to follow and a lot of them have screenshots and images , so I was able to resolve any issues within a couple of minutes instead of waiting for an email response.
