When managing many online accounts and social profiles, we often forget usernames and passwords. Social media and other websites like Prime and Netflix have passwords to manage too. Nevertheless, Opera is here to help to remember all the passwords with the corresponding usernames.

Hence, I started using the Passwords Manager in the Opera Browser to automatically log in to my Instagram accounts without forgetting them all.
