Google Autofill with biometric support on Android

Google has launched biometric control ς με αυτόματη συμπλήρωση των διαπιστευτηρίων σύνδεσης στο Android. Το Android διαθέτει τη δυνατότητα αυτόματης συμπλήρωσης (autofill) της Google εδώ και μερικά χρόνια, αλλά η εφαρμογή δεν ήταν και τόσο s, as Google never asked for biometric verification or any password before filling the details.

So one could easily use the autofill feature to sign in to apps and services on an unlocked one .

With a recent update to Play Services from the server, Google has made biometric authentication available for autocomplete. The function is possible from Android 10 and newer devices.

The function is in Settings

Settings -> Google -> Auto-fill -> Auto-fill with Google -> Auto-fill security

Here, you will find the option to toggle biometric authentication for login credentials, although it is enabled by default in +.

Here is a quick video from Android Police showing the feature:
