Chrome has a very nice feature that allows us to save all the usernames and passwords for any website that we login into. This feature is very helpful if there are multiple passwords that you have to remember and also it saves our time in logging in.

Although password managers are generally safe but saving your Passwords in a Web Browser can be sometimes risky if there are multiple people using your PC or Laptop.
