Apple iCloud Keychain now works with third-party web browsers on macOS – Times of India

macOS Sonoma public beta is now live and users can download the beta on their supported Mac devices. One of the features of the latest Mac operating system is that it extends iCloud Keychain support to Chrome web browser on macOS. For those who are unaware, Apple has been supporting iCloud Keychain for both Safari and Chrome. However, Chrome support was only available on Windows as it was Safari-only on macOS.
With macOS Sonoma, Apple has made the iCloud Keychain available for Chrome on macOS as well. Going forward, Apple MacBook users will be able to use iCloud Keychain on Chrome browser to enter passwords via biometric authentication.
9to5Google has reported that the iCloud Passwords extension for Chrome has received an update and it has been updated to version 2.0.5. But, the support extends beyond the Chrome browser. The feature, as per the report, will also work with other Chromium-based web browsers like Microsoft Edge, Arc, etc.
In addition to this, the iCloud Passwords for Microsoft Edge for macOS has also been updated to 2.0.5 version.
The iCloud Keychain feature allows users to securely store usernames, passwords and authentication codes to make it easier and faster for users to enter the app, websites, etc to log in without remembering the password.
The update makes the iCloud Keychain completely compatible with these browsers the same way it is compatible with Safari.
macOS Sonoma Public Beta is now available for all users to download on their devices. The update brings several new features and changes like a new lock screen design, widgets updates, FaceTime improvements and more.
