Chrome for Android offers a great password management system within the browser, and it’s integrated with Google’s Password Manager.
When we log in to a site for the first time, Chrome requests whether to save the password, and we can either allow or deny the request. We can easily manage and remove the saved password if it is no longer needed.
The Google Chrome Password is the easiest way to save and remember online passwords. It will automatically populate and autofill the username and password if available. It makes the whole process super easy and less forgetful.
There are multiple well-known third-party browser extensions and apps that help in saving the username and password. But I use Chrome passwords to keep my online account synced across the devices. Also, it lessens the headache of remembering or noting down a password used for a website.
All the passwords are stored in the Google password manager portal, where you can easily log in with a Google account and view saved passwords. If passwords on Android are not stored, chrome will ask permission to save them into its database. Based on your consent, the password is either stored or ignored.
The Chrome passwords also help auto-generate a strong password when you signup for a new online account. The auto-generated password and sign-in info are stored in the password manager.

Bottom Line
You can view, edit, or delete the saved password within the browser. The password saved on one device is automatically synced across all the Chrome signed-in devices using the same Google account.
Likewise, the changes made in one device are reflected across all devices. Similarly, you can also manage the saved password on a Chrome computer.
I use the password manager on Chrome for Android regularly since it is always difficult to remember them. Also, I sync them over my Google account to make them available on all the devices I use. It makes everything more accessible and more convenient.
Do you use the Chrome password manager or rely on third-party services like LastPass or Dashlane?
