Password managers are built for logins. When someone dies or cannot manage their affairs, families need a lot more than that.
Password managers store usernames and passwords so you can sign in to websites and apps. They do not usually organize broader life information such as account details, insurance, property, contacts, or step-by-step instructions for family members.
When someone dies or becomes incapacitated, families need to find and act on:
A list of logins alone does not tell loved ones what accounts exist, which policies to claim, or what to do next. For more on organizing this kind of information, see how to organize important information for your family.
Spreadsheets can become incomplete, outdated, and difficult for others to understand. They rarely give structure for documents, contacts, and instructions, and they are easy to forget to update.
