Cons
Con Password generator only uses 8 special characters !@#$%^&*
Where as a desktop keyboard has 30+ special characters. This reduces the possible passwords that can be generated, equivalent to 6.6% lower length than 33 special character.
Con Cannot update data while offline, requires Internet connection
Con Unable to remove duplicates
If you import more than one times, it will store its duplicates and there is no duplicate remover on these apps.
Con Cloud-based
You're storing your passwords on servers and you have to trust them.
Con Cannot store images of ID card, etc
Attachments available in premium.
Con Input of new login needs a 'signed-up with e-mail = 'example@wherever.org' functionality
Often sites won't be able to reset your password if the corresponding e-mail used in sign-up is unknown.
Con Passwords cards can be tricky for newbies
The fields can be difficult to understand for newbies. For example, some login pages can add a field for the password name differently at the same time as the password's field will contain a password. When changing the password, they sometime end corresponding and can give headaches to some users
Con Lack of communication between instance opened in one session
If you use the client's desktop's app, multiple browsers extensions; they all work almost totally independently. Using more RAM as database is opened each time and asking for login more often. Some other passwords managers use desktop's client to open the database and extensions communicate with it in this case. If there's no desktop's, they'll work as standalone extensions.
Con Web browser extension doesn't recognise login required
User has to scroll/search for web site login details as it is not found automatically.
Con Doesn't autofill 2FA in pass fields
