Block Chrome password banner: “Use passwords saved in your Google Account”

Posted on

Problem :

The Google Chrome desktop browser on macOS is now prompting me whenever I click in a password field:

Use passwords saved in your Google Account

Use passwords saved in your Google Account

When I click the banner, it shows:

Use your Google Account to save and fill passwords?

Use your Google Account to save and fill passwords?

Passwords from your Google Account will also be available on this device while you’re signed in

No thanks | Yes

Clicking “No thanks” does not permanently hide the banner. It still appears whenever I focus a password field.

How can I permanently block the password field banner?

I do not want to use a Google password manager.

The banner may also block the display of different password managers.

Solution :

You can turn off “Offer to save passwords” at the Chrome settings URL below:

chrome://settings/passwords?search=password

Also clear any passwords saved there (if any). It has never prompted me for password fill in Chrome.
