Google Chrome’s password manager has been around for quite some time a priority element within a set of functions and services offered by the company of the most used search engine and web browser in the world. In that time, the tool has gained both users and detractors, and while there are more than reasonable arguments on both sides, at least for now, the arguments in favor seem to prevail.
If you are a Google Chrome user, you surely remember that In its early days, the password management offered by the browser was quite limited. It allowed you to save credentials but not edit them, and also create secure keys if you signed up for a service or needed to edit the one you were using, in one of which you were already a user. However, when Google added the ability to modify login information, everything began to indicate that its plans were much more ambitious.
That was the case with Google Chrome’s password manager today they already compete in utility, features and integration with other solutions (whether it is an application, a service, or a file of both), some of which are commercial. It is true, however, that it focuses exclusively on online credentials, unlike other proposals in this sense, which allow you to manage other types of keys and credentials, but of course we are talking about a solution specifically designed for the context of a web browser.
A few weeks ago, we learned about Google’s plans to add a new feature to the Android version of the browser, and now the company has confirmed that Google Chrome’s password verification feature is available for iOSwhich allows browser users on Apple devices to access a complete report that lists not only passwords that have been compromised, but also those that are potentially weak and those that are duplicated, i.e. those that we use in more than one service.
This feature has been present in the desktop/web version of the manager for some time now, and actually a few months ago we showed you and explained how to use the manager, just like on Android, so it was only a matter of time before this feature, which really adds a lot of value to Google Chrome’s password manager, finally arrived on iOS. So if you’re using Chrome on iOS and you’ve updated your browser to the latest version, you can now access Security Verification.
