And also a shortcut on the browser desktop, notes for secret questions and other functions.
Google updated password manager in Chrome on desktop and iOS. It has become more convenient and safer.
For example, the Chrome Password Manager shortcut is now prominently displayed on the desktop version of the browser. No more searching for it in settings to access or change passwords. And you don't have to leave the page to view the information stored on it or change your privacy settings.
Desktop computers also have biometric authentication. Previously, it was only available on mobile versions. This means that all users of the service can now protect their data with a fingerprint or face scan.
In addition, notes for passwords and logins have been added to Chrome Password Manager. Now, along with them, you can save answers to verification questions, quick codes and other additional information that may sometimes be needed to enter accounts.
Google has also improved the import of data from similar programs in its password manager.
And the browser for iOS is coming soon with a larger pop-up for autofill data, as well as alerts for reused and weak passwords.
