Google Chrome has useful password management features that save passwords as desired, automatically log you in to desired websites and apps, or verify saved passwords. Google Password Management is especially handy if you don’t want Chrome to ask you to save your credentials every time you log in, or if you don’t always want to actively log in to frequently used accounts.

Adhere to the following steps to store and manage passwords in Google Chrome.
Step 1: Open the Chrome browser and click the three-dot “More” icon on the top right corner. After that, go to “Settings”.
Step 2: In the settings menu on the left, click “Autofill” and click “Passwords” to go to Google’s password management.
Step 3: Now set the password settings according to your needs. First, under “Offer to save passwords”, you can instruct Google Chrome to save credentials and remember them for the next time you visit a website.
Step 4: If there are already saved passwords, you can tell Chrome to automatically log you in when you visit a website under “Auto Sign-in”. To do this, activate the blue switch. Deactivate the switch if you want Chrome to ask you for an automatic login every time you log in.
Step 5: With the “Check passwords” item, Chrome offers you to check already saved passwords for current security standards such as optimal password strength.
Step 6: Passwords that you have already saved Chrome will display under “Saved Passwords”. For saved passwords, you can make further changes or remove saved websites.
Step 7: If you would like to save passwords but exclude certain websites from this function, enter the relevant URLs under “Never Saved”. This is especially recommended for sensitive credentials, such as bank or insurance accounts.
Step 8: If you want to use passwords across devices, enable Chrome syncing. This will save passwords to your Google account and sync them across all your devices. To do this, go to the “Turn on sync…” item under “You and Google”.
