If you use Chrome on your Android device, it’s likely that you’ve already set up Autofill. This feature automatically fills in the address bar and other places where you need to type information, like credit card numbers and passwords. It saves time and effort but if you’re like me, then sometimes there are times when I forget to turn it off! That’s why I’m going to show you how to change your Autofill settings so that they work for what matters most: keeping my information safe from hackers.
Open the Google Chrome app.
- Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen, then select Settings.
- Tap Autofill and payments on the Settings screen to open it up again.
- Tap Passwords at this point, then locate and tap your account name at the top of the screen to select it (this will appear on all other tabs).
Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen.
To change your password manager, you’ll need to tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen.

Select Settings.
- Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen, then select Settings.
- Tap on Autofill and payments on Settings screen, then tap Passwords (or simply tap it again if you want to revert back).
- You can change which apps have access to your passwords by selecting an app from a list or by tapping Edit next to an app’s name below this section, then tapping Edit again when prompted to do so when making changes within that specific app’s settings page for that particular service/application type (e.g., Facebook).
