Between apps, games, services, various accounts, and websites, we have tons of logins and passwords to deal with. If you’re doing things right, you’ve got different usernames and passwords across the board and there’s no overlap between them.
When it comes to desktops and laptops, we have a handful of excellent browser extensions and services to help us keep track of all of these various accounts. LastPass, for instance, gives users a tool that only requires them to remember one login. Simply put your password into LastPass and it will secretly and securely log you into a website or service. Moreover, they also let you store phone numbers, addresses, credit card details, and more.

Called Autofill, the option remembers your important data so that you don’t have to worry about it. Let’s say, for instance, that you have a game that you uninstall today and want to come back to it a few months later. Android will keep track of the login details so you don’t have to keep it tucked away in the corner of your mind.
Why It’s Awesome

Once you get down to it, you’ll realize how satisfying it is when your phone just knows what information needs to be go in and does it. Further, you’ll find that you actually have more accounts and logins than you think. We’re talking dozens, if not hundreds.
Now, as great as this is, the feature is may not be enabled by default. Indeed, you might have to manually turn it on if you want to take advantage of it. This could vary by device or phone maker.
How to Enable

One of the key reasons we really love the default way Android 8.0 handles Autofill is that it pulls in your Chrome accounts. That’s right, all of those logins you’ve been saving to Chrome over the last few years are automatically added.
What Else?
Google makes this feature available to app and game developers so that they can also leverage the smarts. The Autofill API works with pretty much any title just so long as there are some hints or code to trigger the fields properly. Among the early adopting tools and services are 1Password, Dashlane, Enpass, and LastPass.

Stop using the same username and password for all of your accounts: use a password manager. Take advantage of the way your phone does this for you and trust Google. The next step is to strengthen the actual passwords for each of your websites, credit card logins, and apps.
