Google is rolling out a built-in Android feature that lets users securely transfer both passwords and passkeys directly between credential manager apps, replacing the old method of exporting unencrypted text files or manually recreating passkeys.

Users initiate the process from their new password manager, and Android handles detection, review, and authorization before completing the transfer in seconds.
