Not only does this avoid extra input, but it also makes authentication easier without having to remember every password. However, it's easy to forget our passwords without having to enter them. Thankfully, there is an easy way to see saved passwords in Google Chrome. Chrome stores your passwords in its cloud storage, so you can use them on both mobile and desktop versions of Chrome.
