Add, Edit, and Manage Addresses for Autofill in Edge on Android

The Edge browser for Android has a feature to auto-fill the address details already stored in the browser storage. You can automatically add multiple addresses and choose the desired address to complete the form. The saved address can be edited, deleted, and synced easily across all devices when signed in with Microsoft account.

We are often asked to enter the address and other location details on websites when we purchase online. We know that the addresses are hardly going to change frequently. Hence, storing it in the browser storage is a good idea.

Whenever we fill out a form requiring an address or location while registering, the browser automatically detects the fields and shows the details. This will eliminate the manual effort of filling out the edge address again and again.

Microsoft Edge does offer the ability to store the address in the browser. These details are used for auto-filling the forms. The address is synced within Microsoft accounts and shared across devices.

Add and Save Address

When we fill out the form for the first time, the Edge browser asks whether to save the address for future use. However, if you haven’t filled out any form, you can manually enter the address in Edge Android. The autofill in Edge can be a useful feature

Here are the steps to add an address:

1. Launch the Microsoft Edge app on Android.
2. Tap on the More menu for options.
3. Select the Settings menu from the list.
4. Tap on your profile icon.
5. Select Addresses and more options.
6. Tap on the ‘+ Add address‘ command button
7. Enter the Address details and tap on the Save command.
   

The edge address will be added to browser storage and can be used for future autofill Android in any form. Next time you fill out the form, the Edge will automatically populate the address.

You can choose the available address list if you’ve multiple addresses (home, office, parent’s home, etc.).

Edit Saved Address

The address is not permanent for everyone. Hence, you can always modify the address details per your needs in Edge Android. These changes are also synced in all Microsoft logged-in devices.

Here are the steps to edit autofill addresses details:

1. Launch the Edge app on Android.
2. Tap on the More  menu for options.

The edge address will be successfully edited with the changes and available from the following form autofill.

Delete Saved Address

If you’re moving your business or home to a new location and an existing address is no longer required, then it’s better to delete the address from the records. Just like adding an address, deleting is relatively seamless.

Here are the steps to delete saved addresses:

1. Launch the Microsoft Edge on Android.
