Google Chrome now checks for weak passwords, helps fix them

Google has added a new feature to the Chrome web browser that will make it easier to check if your stored passwords are weak and easy to guess. The new feature will be rolled out to Google Chrome users over the coming weeks after updating to version 88, promoted yesterday to the Stable channel. Chrome will allow you to change your password using stronger ones that can be generated on the spot and stored for later use. Chrome also warns you if one of your stored password has been compromised in a data breach after logging in to sites.
