Google has upgraded its password manager in Chrome. The browser will now be able to automatically change weak or compromised passwords. This announcement was made at the Google I/O conference, according to The Verge.

Currently, Chrome alerts users about weak or compromised passwords, but changing them often has to be done manually. The new feature automates this process: if the browser detects a vulnerable password, it will recommend a change, 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 combine convenience with security: “If the password change process is too complicated, users simply ignore it. Automatic changes are a win for both security and user experience”.

Chrome will not change passwords without user consent, as users remain at the center of the process, Tabriz emphasized. This feature is not yet active; Google has announced it for developers to prepare their services for the planned release at the end of 2025.

Additionally, this year Google introduced a new AI Ultra plan for $250 a month, a real-time translation feature in Google Meet, a new AI tool for interface creation called Stitch, and smart glasses in collaboration with Xreal.
