Last year, Google had announced that it would be introducing a feature in Chrome for Android that would allow Assistant to help users change stolen passwords in a few steps. While the new experience would roll out gradually, more than a handful of users have started to get it on their devices.
With this update, users will be prompted as soon as they log into a site with a password that has been compromised. Assistant can handle the entire process for users from start to finish, but they do have the option to take over at any stage.
Chrome can also warn users if their stored passwords are unsafe or reused from a data breach. The dialogue box will have a big Assistant-branded “Change automatically” button. Once tapped, a confirmation sheet will pop up which users will need to agree to. Users will then be taken directly to the affected website to set up a new password for the account. Here, users can type in their own key or let the built-in password manager suggest one.
