Google Chrome Now Requires Your Fingerprint To Enter Passwords

 


Google Chrome has recently become more serious about security to protect the safety and privacy of users from being invaded by irresponsible people. Therefore, the password saving feature, auto-fill feature and more are developed and updated to be more user-friendly.


Recently, Chrome for Android, Windows and macOS has been updated with a feature requiring a user's fingerprint scan to automatically fill in passwords. This feature however can only be used on devices that have a fingerprint scanner. In my tests on Chrome on Windows the new version of this feature has not yet been introduced as the username and password are still filled in automatically without any identity verification.


Another feature that has also been introduced is obscuring pornographic and sensitive images that appear in searches. This is to prevent inappropriate images from being accidentally displayed.
