## Key features

- **Save and autofill in Chrome and Android:** Chrome offers to save a password when you enter one and fills it in on every device where you are signed in. On Android it fills passwords in apps once Google is the autofill service.
- **Passkeys:** Creates and saves passkeys to your Google Account, and can automatically create a passkey when you sign in with a password that is already saved.
- **Password Checkup:** Identifies security issues with saved passwords, notifies you when one turns up in a data breach and helps you change it.
- **Strong password suggestions:** Suggests strong, unique passwords for new accounts and saves them to your Google Account so you do not have to remember them.
- **On-device encryption:** An optional setting that locks passwords and passkeys with a key only you hold, unlocked with your Google password or an eligible device's screen lock.
- **Import and export:** Imports passwords from another manager as a CSV file at passwords.google.com, and exports them from Chrome, Android or the same site.

## Good for

- People who already use Chrome or Android and do not want to install anything
- Anyone who wants a no-cost password manager tied to their Google Account
- Users starting to replace passwords with passkeys

## Worth knowing

- There is no standalone desktop app: on a computer, passwords are filled in Chrome or viewed at passwords.google.com.
- On iPhone and iPad it depends on Chrome being set as the AutoFill provider in the device's settings.
- With standard encryption Google holds the key to saved passwords. On-device encryption is optional and cannot be removed once set up.
- If you are signed out of Chrome, saved passwords stay on that device and are not available on your other devices.
