Google has recently updated its Chrome browser, introducing an enhanced autofill feature that now supports filling in passport details, driver’s license information, vehicle registration data, and more.
Previously known for assisting users with addresses, passwords, and payment information, Chrome’s autofill feature has been expanded to cater to a wider array of personal documentation needs. Desktop users with enhanced autofill enabled will benefit from having their passport and driver’s license numbers, vehicle specifics such as license plate or VIN, and other relevant details automatically populated when prompted on websites.
Google emphasizes that Chrome has been equipped to comprehend intricate forms and diverse formatting requirements, thereby enhancing data accuracy across various online platforms. The browser ensures data security by saving autofill information only with user consent and encrypting the stored data. Furthermore, users are prompted to confirm autofill actions before Chrome populates the saved information.
These updates are now accessible worldwide in all languages, with plans for Chrome to support additional data types in the near future.
