Google Password Manager could soon let you clear with one tap

Google Password Manager could soon let you clear with one tap

Some of the best password managers on the market can seamlessly help you store your login details in a safe and secure manner. Not only do they serve as a repository of all your digital credentials, they also integrate with your device's keyboard to autofill details when necessary — alongside options to generate random one-time-use emails for times when you need to sign up to a new website anonymously.

Currently, users that want to move to a different password manager need to manually delete saved GPM data one at a time or completely erase their Chrome history. Although the latter isn't a cumbersome process, it does get rid of all your history, site data, cached images, files, and more as a byproduct. GPM's new 'delete all' will serve only one pupose — to wipe the password manager's slate clean without messing with other data.

Google is working on a new feature for its app that allows users to delete saved passwords, passkeys, and the list of sites and apps they chose not to save sign-in information for. A warning will appear before deletion, confirming what will be removed, but it won't delete the actual accounts. The tool isn't available yet, even with the latest Google Play Services beta, but it is expected to be released in the coming weeks.
