Chrome Autofill Gets a Big Upgrade on Android and iPhone

Filling out forms on your phone has always been a bit of a pain. You're squinting at a tiny field, hunting for the info, typing it out slowly. Google's trying to fix that with a fresh set of Chrome autofill upgrades rolling out to Android and iOS right now.

What's Actually New Here

Back in November 2025, Google gave Chrome its first major autofill expansion in years. Before that, autofill only covered passwords, addresses, and payment details. The November update added support for passport numbers, driver's license details, and vehicle information like VIN and plate numbers. But that rollout was limited to desktop. Starting June 23, 2026, those same features are coming to Android and iOS.

So if you've been doing this on desktop and wondering why it wasn't on your phone yet, that gap is now closed.

Google Wallet Is Now Doing the Heavy Lifting

Chrome will pull this information directly from Google Wallet, but only with your explicit permission. The data stays secure and encrypted, consistent with how other autofill info is handled.

Chrome can now also fill loyalty card details for flights, hotels, and rental cars automatically using data stored in Google Wallet. You can also save vehicle information to Wallet from Chrome, which comes in handy for things like insurance quotes and car rentals.

Essentially, if you've already saved something to Google Wallet, Chrome can now use it across more form types on mobile.

What If Your Info Isn't in Wallet Yet?

If the relevant details aren't already saved in your Google Wallet, Chrome will offer to save them the first time you enter them in a form. You can also manage and update your personal data through your Google Wallet settings or the "Autofill and passwords" section in Chrome settings. Private passes like IDs have their own separate controls.

The Name and Email Piece

There's also a broader Google account integration rolling out now. If you're signed into Chrome with your Google account, it can automatically pass your name and email address through when you're signing up or logging in on a website. This also works with your saved home and work addresses, and it's rolling out across desktop, Android, iPhone, and iPad.

That one's fairly straightforward but it's the kind of thing that quietly saves you time across a lot of everyday tasks.

Better Suggestions on Android

On Android specifically, Chrome is also getting a new two-line display for autofill suggestions, which makes it easier to tell the difference between multiple saved entries when you're choosing what to fill in.

It's a small UI change, but when you've got more than one address or card saved, it actually matters.

A Quick Note on Security

Storing things like passport numbers and government IDs in a browser is a real trade-off. Google has the feature turned off by default, and the data is stored in encrypted form tied to your Google account. On supported devices, you'll need biometric or PIN verification to access it. Whether that's enough is a call you'll have to make for yourself based on your own comfort level.
