How to Save Your Passwords on Google account and view them later

We all know passwords are important, but it’s hard to remember them all, right? That’s why we keep on writing them down in notebooks, or keep them in our phones and computers, where we can always view the passwords when we need them.

Unfortunately, this can become a problem if you misplace your notebook, or if you forget your phone or computer at home, where your passwords will not be safe from prying eyes.

Fortunately, you can use Google Account to save and view your passwords from any device and view or access them anytime you desire. Let me show you how.

About Google account password

Google account password is a password that you can use to sign in to any Google service. It is created automatically when you create your Google account.

You will use it every time you sign in to Gmail, YouTube, Drive, or any other Google service. If someone gets access to your Google account password, they will be able to see all of your private information and change settings for the different services.

To prevent this from happening, it is important that you keep your password safe by not sharing it with anyone else.
