Google has rolled out a new Android transfer system that lets compatible password managers exchange passwords and passkeys directly. The feature removes the need to export passwords as unencrypted text files and provides a way to move passkeys when changing services. Android detects supported password managers on the device and guides users through selecting, reviewing and authorising the transfer. Google Password Manager, 1Password, Bitwarden Password Manager and Dashlane currently support the feature, while additional providers are expected to join later. from Gadgets 360 https://ift.tt/iDaVWd5

Instagram has started rolling out a new profile feature that lets users bring tagged posts onto their main grid. The change gives users greater control over which posts associated with them are visible alongside their own uploads. Instagram provides multiple ways to add a tagged post, including through notifications, the post menu and the Tagged tab. Added posts follow the profile's default ordering, while users can later remove them from the grid without deleting the original post or removing the tag. from Gadgets 360 https://ift.tt/PEtfo1d
