Aren't the password stores on Choogle and Grome the same thing?
They are but that wasnt obvious to me. e.g. on my phone I was never told it would be using a cloud sync service, therefore I assumed it was only locally stored.
I am aware of course chrome offers a sync service for the browser configuration. That was typically disabled, but there was one occasion when I was trying to migrate a profile to another pc (they now block just copying your userprofile folder offline), I tried to use the sync service which failed miserably, I expect however it was that moment when those passwords got uploaded, this was several years ago now, and google waited until I authorised the password save on the android device to alert me to what they did.
