Add, Edit, and Manage Addresses for Autofill in Chrome on the Computer

Chrome happily fills a shipping address into a checkout form until the saved record is out of date, and then you are stuck correcting the same field every time.

Open Addresses and more in Chrome's Autofill and passwords settings to add the right address, fix an old one, delete duplicates, or set a default.

In this guide, I have covered:

Some readers like to see the flow before they follow it. The clip below walks through Chrome’s address autofill screens on a computer, from the settings page to a saved entry.

Labels shift between Chrome versions. If your menu uses different wording, the written steps in the next section match the current layout.

Open Chrome’s Address Autofill Settings

Everything starts on the page that lists your saved address records. Open it once and you can add, fix, or delete any address Chrome uses to fill forms.

That list supplies the contact and shipping details Chrome offers in website forms. It sits separately from the credentials in Google Password Manager, so editing an address never touches a saved password.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Addresses and more.

You are in the right place when your saved addresses appear under an Add button. On older Chrome releases, the sidebar category may read Autofill or Passwords and Autofill instead.

Add an Address for Autofill

Chrome usually offers to save an address the first time you type one into a checkout or signup form. Accept that prompt and the record is created for you. If you dismissed it, or you need a second address, add the entry by hand.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Addresses and more.
6. Click Add near the top of the address list.
7. Enter the recipient’s name and street address in the pop-up.
8. Complete the remaining fields requested by Chrome, such as city, state or province, postal code, country, phone number, and email address.
   
9. Click Save.

The new entry appears in Addresses and more right away. Load a form with a street address field and Chrome can offer it as a suggestion.

Edit a Saved Address

Moved house, changed your phone number, or spotted a typo? Correct the record you already have. A duplicate leaves you choosing between two near-identical suggestions every time a form appears.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Addresses and more.
6. Open the More menu next to the saved address.
7. Select Edit.
   
8. Update the fields that need changing.
9. Click Save.

Reopen the entry to confirm the new values saved. Reload an open form and Chrome will suggest the corrected address.

Editing on an iPhone or iPad works much the same way. Add, Edit, and Manage Addresses for Autofill in Chrome on iPhone & iPad covers those screens.

Delete a Saved Address

Old flats and former offices have a way of turning up in checkout forms. Remove the record and Chrome stops offering it.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Addresses and more.
6. Open the More menu next to the saved address.
7. Select Delete. Some older Chrome releases show this command as Remove instead.
   
8. Confirm the deletion in the pop-up.

The entry disappears from Addresses and more straight away. With address sync on, the deletion reaches your other signed-in devices once sync runs.

Set a Default Autofill Address

Most people have one address for nearly every order and one for the occasional delivery. Make the usual address the default and keep both records.

1. Open Google Chrome on your computer.
2. Click the More menu in the top-right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left sidebar, select Autofill and passwords.
5. Select Addresses and more.
6. Open the More menu next to the address you want to use most.
7. Select Make default address.

Both addresses stay in the list. Chrome can prioritize the default in the suggestion dropdown, and the other one is still there to pick.

Manage Address Sync Across Devices

Your addresses belong to a Chrome profile. Sign in to a Google Account with address sync on, and an edit you make on a computer reaches your phone and tablet too.

A change won’t appear on a device signed in to a different Google Account or running a different Chrome profile. Each profile keeps its own address list, even when both open the same website.

Addresses follow the Chrome profile, not the computer. Someone using a separate profile in the same Chrome window won’t see your edits.

Android presents a different settings screen for the same synced list. The steps to add and manage addresses in Chrome on Android cover that interface.

Login credentials live separately from addresses. If passwords are the records you need to fix, the guide below covers that page.
