Google is updating its built-in password manager for Chrome and Android as it attempts to position it as an alternative to standalone services offered by 1Password and Bitwarden, the company announced today. Most significant is the ability to manually add passwords to the service, rather than simply relying on Chrome’s offer to save credentials when you use them. There had previously been signs of this feature on Chrome on desktop, but now Google says it’s making it available across \u201call platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n
The search giant also says it’s working to unify the design of the password manager between Chrome and Android with \u201ca simplified and unified management experience\u201d and says this includes a feature that will automatically group multiple passwords used on the same site. On Android, Google says a new \u201cTouch-to-Login\u201d feature lets users enter their credentials via an overlay at the bottom of the screen \u201cto make logging in even quicker.\u201d <\/p>\n
