Till now, Chrome allows deleting saved autofill form info. Now, Google has added an “Undo autofill” feature to Chrome to revert or clear everything browser auto-filled with a single option.
Google Chrome, like other browsers, saves addresses, payment information, and logins when you type, it auto fills them next time in the same form fields to ensure you don’t need to type the information again and again. This saves a lot of time and effort.
But, when was the last time, you noticed Chrome auto-filled information in the wrong form? Deleting everything in the form can be a tedious task. That’s where Google steps in with a new “undo Autofill” option to address those situations.
This feature is available behind a flag in Chrome 117 Canary. When enabled, it “allows reverting Autofill filling operations. Replaces Clear Form functionality.”
How to Enable Undo Autofill feature in Chrome
