How to Set Up Autofill in Google Chrome

In this article we will help you with the tips to Set Up Autofill in Google Chrome. Autofill enables you to store certain data — such as your name, address, telephone number, and so on — in your browser, which you can then use to automatically fill in forms you come across online. Also reminding you that saving extreme private data, or credit card or debit Card details may be very risky and we do not recommend to do.

Autofill is a function in some computer applications or programs, typically those containing forms, which prefills a field automatically and can save a user time.

Most of the time, such as in Internet Explorer and Google Toolbar, the entries depend on the form field’s name, so as to not enter street names in a last name field or vice versa. For this use, RFC 3106 proposed names for such form fields, in earlier HTML 5 specifications this RFC is no longer referenced, thus leaving the selection of names up to each browser’s implementation.
