How to Access Saved Passwords on Chromebook Using Chrome Browser

So, this isn’t about Wi-Fi passwords. We’re talking about passwords for your online accounts—the ones you save in Chrome. If you use Chrome on your Chromebook, your passwords are usually synced to your Google account (if sync is on). Here’s how you find them:

1. Open the Chrome browser on your Chromebook.
2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) at the top right.
3. Go to Settings.
4. Scroll down and tap on Autofill and passwords.
5. Choose Google Password Manager.

You’ll see a list of all the passwords you’ve saved. If you want to actually see the password (not just the dots), click the eye icon next to the account. You’ll need to enter your Chromebook PIN to reveal it. That’s just Google making sure it’s really you.

Using Google Password Manager From Any Device

Here’s the cool part: Google Password Manager isn’t just for Chromebooks. You can access it from any device with a browser. Just search for “Google Password Manager” or go directly to passwords.google.com.

Sign in with your Google account, and you’ll see the same list of saved passwords. Click the eye icon, enter your Google password, and boom—your password is visible.

What If You Can’t Find a Password?

If you don’t see a password you expected, maybe you never saved it, or you’re using a different Google account. Make sure you’re signed in with the right account and that password sync is turned on.
