Why Use Google’s Password Sharing on Android?

1. For Sharing Common Passwords Like Netflix

If your family uses shared accounts for services like Amazon Prime and Netflix, this feature eliminates the hassle of constantly asking for login credentials. With a shared password, up to six members of a Google Family group can access these services seamlessly, even during inconvenient times like late at night.

2. More Secure Alternative

Sharing passwords through Google Password Manager is more secure than using instant messaging apps, where they might be vulnerable to prying eyes. Each family member receives a copy in their own password manager, enhancing security.

3. Parents Sharing Passwords With Kids

For parents, this feature simplifies sharing access to passwords for school services and assignments with their children. It ensures that both parents and children know which services are accessible and maintains security.
