I'm having troubles using the LastPass (com.lastpass.lpandroid) app.

Device: Xiaomi Mi5s
ROM: MIUI 8.6.10.27

LastPass register as an accessibility service to detect password fields in apps and in the browser. To enable that I need to grant that permission in the system settings. After doing that, the app works fine for a while.

After some time though, the app exits and I need to restart it manually. I then have to go through the same procedure to enable the LastPass service again. This happens basically every time I need to use the app.

I already set LastPass to have "No restrictions" for background activities in the Security app.

I could show you some screenshots but the forum won't let me post them.

Saw the same thing happening, although Lastpass still invoked the popup when clicking in the password field. But at the end I went back to using Keepass.

Also don't forget to set the Autorun permission.
 
I have the same issue, has been present on MIUI 7 Stable, MIUI 8 Stable, and the latest xiaomi global dev build.
 
I raised this as a bug on the MIUI forum, you can confirm there also :) Can't share a direct link, but here's the thread:
