Chrome Autofill Now Get Biometric Support
Google is making a change to Chrome that will make it easier for users to confirm transactions. Previously, if Chrome used the saved card again for any transaction, users had to enter their CVC number for confirmation. This was very simple and straightforward but now Google wants to simplify it a little more. So now you can confirm a transaction just by your fingerprint or face recognition, like on the Pixel 4.
You will be able to use your credit card with biometric authentication instead of requiring you to pull out your wallet and type in its CVC.
Google Chrome uses WebAuthn standard to enroll you securely, that also makes sure that your biometric data will never leave the device.
This feature is already available on Mac and Windows and for mobile, it will be arriving “in the coming weeks.” ..
Google is planning to simplify the username and password entry process too. You will be seeing a “touch-to-fill” feature that will show you all your saved accounts for the current website. This will be in the form of a sheet titled “Continue with account.” This sheet will be convenient and recognizable, so you won’t have to remember multiple usernames and passwords for different websites. ..
The “touch-to-fill” feature will also be rolling out in the coming weeks.
Google One App offers a free phone backup for Android.
Google has been working on a new assistant called “Bixby” for some time now, and it seems that the company is close to releasing a final product. If everything goes according to plan, Bixby will soon replace Samsung’s current assistant, Samsung Galaxy S10e.
