Google has unveiled an upgraded password manager for Chrome. The browser will now be able to automatically change weak or compromised passwords. This was revealed at the Google I/O conference, according to The Verge.

Currently, Chrome alerts users about compromised passwords. However, changing them often requires manual action. With the new feature, the browser will automate this process: if it detects a weak password, it will suggest replacing it, and on supported websites, it will generate a strong alternative and make the changes automatically.

According to Parisa Tabriz, Google’s Vice President and head of Chrome, the team aims to blend convenience with security: “If changing a password is too complicated, users simply ignore it. Automatic updates are a win for both security and user experience.”

Chrome will not change passwords without user consent, ensuring that users remain central to the process, Tabriz added. The feature is not yet active, and Google has announced it to developers to prepare their services for a rollout planned for the end of 2025.

As a reminder, this year Google also introduced a new AI Ultra pricing plan at $250 per month, real-time translation features in Google Meet, a new AI tool for interface creation called Stitch, and smart glasses in collaboration with Xreal.
