We love to show you how to sync Chrome passwords with Keychain in this article, and this is important because Google Chrome is the most used browser today.
It packs a lot of features and many of these are centered around privacy and security. For example, the browser has an incognito mode, that allows you to browse the internet without leaving fingerprints as you would in normal mode.

One such feature is the ability to sync Chrome passwords with iCloud’s Keychain. This is both convenient and another privacy and security way to go.
Additionally, when you connect to websites using Chrome, you can use the built-in password manager to remember all of your passwords. The browser will autofill registration forms and passwords on login every time you view the page after you’ve stored them.
It even integrates features toenable weak password checks in Chrome. So, without much ado, let’s jump into it.
