For those who prefer using Chrome over Safari for web browsing, you can now access credentials from your iCloud Keychain directly in your Chrome browser.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/icloud-keychain-google-chrome\/hero.jpg\" alt=\"iCloud Keychain on X login paage\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\"><\/figure>\n<p>Previously, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/icloud-keychain-vs-password-manager\/\">iCloud Keychain<\/a> was exclusive to Safari users. If you logged into an account in Safari, you could auto-fill passwords and 2FA codes using Touch ID. Chrome users had to rely on Chrome\u2019s built-in password manager or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/password-tools\/\">third-party apps like 1Password<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, those days are behind us, thanks to the iCloud Keychain Chrome extension aptly named \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/icloud-passwords\/pejdijmoenmkgeppbflobdenhhabjlaj\">iCloud Password.<\/a>\u201d With this extension, you can not only retrieve your iCloud passwords in Chrome but also access passkeys and even create new ones to save to iCloud Keychain.<\/p>\n<p>With the release of macOS Sonoma, Apple updated its Chrome extension to include support for Mac users. Unfortunately, those using macOS Ventura or older versions are left out. But if you\u2019re on the latest macOS, this extension is available to you.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let\u2019s check out how to use this Chrome extension to access credentials from your iCloud Keychain and auto-fill login forms.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1.<\/h3>\n<p>Firstly, you need to download and install the <a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/icloud-passwords\/pejdijmoenmkgeppbflobdenhhabjlaj\">iCloud Passwords Chrome extension<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/icloud-keychain-google-chrome\/icloud-password-chrome-extension.jpg\" alt=\"iCloud Passwords Chrome extension page\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1700\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 2.<\/h3>\n<p>Next, in Chrome, click on the extension icon in the top bar and pin it, ensuring it remains visible in your browser\u2019s toolbar.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/icloud-keychain-google-chrome\/pin-extension.jpg\" alt=\"How to pin the iCloud Passwords extension in Chrome\" width=\"994\" height=\"706\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 3.<\/h3>\n<p>Here\u2019s a step you\u2019ll only need to complete once: Click on the extension icon. It will prompt you to enter a verification code. This code will be automatically generated by your Mac and displayed for you. Enter the code, and you\u2019re set.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/icloud-keychain-google-chrome\/enable-password-autofill.jpg\" alt=\"Prompt to enter verification code for iCloud Passwords extension\" width=\"1224\" height=\"630\"><\/figure>\n<h3>Step 4.<\/h3>\n<p>Navigate to a website where you wish to log in, for instance, PayPal. When you click on the first login field, in this case, the email field, the extension will search for your PayPal credentials. Simply select them, and both the email and password fields will be automatically filled.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/icloud-keychain-google-chrome\/email-login.jpg\" alt=\"Auto-fill email login using iCloud Passwords extension\" width=\"1176\" height=\"792\"><\/figure>\n<p>And that\u2019s all there is to it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>On a related note:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Google is in the process of adding support for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/how-passkeys-work\/\">third-party passkeys<\/a>, including those from Apple, to Chrome. This feature is set to debut in Chrome 118. This enhancement will simplify the login process on websites using passkeys, eliminating the need for an additional device. While this Chrome version hasn\u2019t been officially released, you can get a sneak peek by using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\/beta\/\">Chrome Beta<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iCloud Keychain, previously exclusive to Mac and iOS, is now available for Google Chrome users.
