Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to verify my identity to view a password?
This extra step, usually your device login password or a fingerprint, exists to prevent someone else using your computer from being able to see your saved passwords.
Do saved passwords sync automatically to other devices?
Yes, as long as you are signed in to the same Google account, the same list of saved passwords is available in Chrome on your other devices too.
