Google has announced a major security update to the Password Manager on its Chrome browser to encourage competition between third-party managers.
Google has announced a major security update to the Password Manager on its Chrome browser that is aimed at helping users maintain their passwords natively and rely less on third-party managers such as 1Password, Bitwarden, Dashlane, and LastPass.
The first feature of the update is a dedicated Password Manager space within your Chrome menu, where you can find other options including Check up and Settings. Google notes that this design change makes it easy to access passwords. You can also set up a shortcut to the Google Password Manager on your PC desktop without going through the triple-dot menu on Chrome.
The notes feature in this update allows you to store additional information in the Google Password Manager that is associated with your password, such as a pin number you’d need to remember to log in or if you have several accounts for one website. You can click the key icon of a site you’re logging into to access the notes you have for that page.
Google is bringing its Password Checkup function, which is already on desktop and Android, to iOS to help iPhone users detect weak and reused passwords while using Chrome. This is one of the updates that isn’t coming right away, but rather in the coming months.
