Chrome on Android has the ability to automatically change leaked passwords khẩu

Not long ago, Google updated Chrome with the ability to check a user's credentials to see if their passwords were leaked. And now, Google continues to support users even more when launching the leaked automatic password change feature for Chrome on Android.

Now, whenever it detects leaked passwords on supported websites and apps, Google Assistant will display a "Change Password" button. Press this button, Chrome will automatically navigate to the corresponding password change page of the service and perform the entire password change process itself.

Of course, the system will automatically generate a strong password for you and save that password in the system for self-filling later.

During the process, you can choose to stop for manual execution at any point. For example, you can stop the process to enter your own strong password.

"With the help of Duplex on the Web, Assistant can take care of the tedious tasks of browsing the web like scrolling, clicking and filling out forms. This helps you focus on what's important to you." Patrick Nepper, Senior Product Manager at Google Chrome shared."We're now enhancing Duplex's capabilities even further by allowing users to quickly generate strong passwords for apps and sites. certain websites when Chrome discovers your credentials are leaked".

Duplex launched in 2019 to allow Google Assistant to help users complete simple web tasks such as ordering food, checking in for flights, buying movie tickets. Now, it also has the ability to automatically change strong passwords for users.

The automatic password change feature will be rolling out to the US market first, then rolling out to other countries in the coming months.

In addition, Google also said that the Chrome password manager for Android will receive a number of improvements, including:

1. A new tool that makes it easy to import passwords from other password managers
2. Deeper Chrome integration with Android for a more seamless password-filling experience regardless of whether you're on a desktop or mobile device
3. Password leak alert automatically alerts you if your password is leaked due to third-party issues

At Google I/O 2021, Google announced that there are now 3 billion Android devices installed. This number does not include devices using third-party app stores and Android tablets and smartphones in China.
