Google is testing the function of editing saved passwords

Google has begun testing a new password feature for Chrome’s proprietary browser. Passwords saved for automatic filling can be easily edited later.

Google turns Chrome into a complete password manager

The new code has already appeared in the documentation and the function should soon appear among other experimental features on the chrome: // flags page.  

At the moment, Chrome supports auto-complete usernames and passwords, notification of the need to change the password if the username and password were revealed as a result of a leak. At the same time, in the desktop version of Chrome, there is no convenient opportunity to edit passwords once saved.

Instead, the user is prompted to manage passwords through a Google Account. A test version of password editing can be expected in Chrome 86, 87, or 88.

A similar feature started testing in Chrome for Android last year, but has yet to be officially released and is being activated via an experimental flag.
