How To View Your Google Chrome Saved Passwords

The way that Google Chrome manages your usernames and passwords is fantastic. What happens, though, if you want to log in to a certain website from another device but can’t remember your password and the website is not loading the information for you automatically? You can quickly access a list of all stored passwords by browsing via Chrome’s settings, after which you can manually key in the password. 

In this article, we’ll go through the specifics of where to look and how to view your Google Chrome passwords. It is important to keep in mind that this method will only offer the passwords that are currently saved in Chrome. In this article, we will look at “How To View Your Google Chrome Saved Passwords”

How to View Google Chrome Saved Passwords on Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, and Linux:

Since viewing passwords is done via the Chrome browser, the process is identical across all major desktop/laptop OSes (Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS (Chromebook), etc.). The security prompt is the one and only exception to this rule. Follow the appropriate steps to view Google Chrome Passwords on the following devices:

Step 1: Launch “Google Chrome” on your desktop or laptop computer, and then either click the “vertical ellipsis” (Menu) in the upper right-hand corner of the screen or click the “profile icon” in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.

Step 2: Now, choose the “Settings” option from the menu. You may also get to the Settings page by entering “chrome:/settings” into the address bar of Chrome. This is an alternative method.

Step 3: Then choose “Autofill” from the menu on the left.

Step 4: Choose the “Passwords” option.

Step 5: Here you can view a list of all the passwords you’ve saved in Chrome. Simply clicking the “eye” symbol will show the password that you have entered.

Step 6: If you are using a device that isn’t a Windows computer, you will be prompted to enter your Google “username/password” in the “Security” box. The “username and password” for the operating system are required before using Mac OS, Chrome OS, or Linux.

Step 7: It will show your password for the website that you have selected. To conceal it, you must click the “eye” button a second time.

How to View Passwords Saved in Google Chrome on Your Mobile Device: 

On your Android or iOS smartphone, viewing stored passwords for Google Chrome is a reasonably basic process that is the same on both operating systems. Follow the appropriate steps to view passwords saved in Google Chrome on your mobile device:

 Step 1: First, launch the “Chrome app” on your mobile device.

 Step 2: If you have an Android device, look for the “vertical ellipsis”  in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. If you have an iOS device, look for the “horizontal ellipsis” in the lower right-hand corner of the screen (iOS).

 Step 3: Select the “Settings” option from the menu.

 Step 4: After that, select the “Passwords” option.

 Step 5: You will be presented with a list of the passwords to all of the websites that you have ever stored. Choose the website from the drop-down menu in order to see the password for that particular site.

 Step 6: Tap the symbol that looks like an eye to see the password.

 Step 7: If you have an iPhone or Android device, a security screen will display asking for your “OS PIN” or “password/passcode.” After that, you will be brought back to the same screen, but this time the website’s password will be displayed instead.

 Step 8: If you want to conceal the password, you have to tap the “eye” icon once more, but it will be hidden on its own when the app is closed. To get back to the password list, press the “Done” button (on Android) or the “Back” button (on iOS).
