Google is expanding Chrome’s enhanced autofill so it can suggest details found in a user’s Gmail when they fill out forms. The feature can look for information such as a package tracking number, a flight booking number, a hotel reservation or a recent purchase’s order number, potentially sparing users a search through their email.

The rollout began in the US on October 28, 2026. It is available in Chrome on desktop, Android and iOS for people who have Personal Intelligence turned on in Gemini. Google says users can manage enhanced autofill’s access in Chrome settings or switch the feature off.

## What can it find?

The new Gmail-based suggestions build on an earlier version of Chrome’s enhanced autofill. The Verge reports that version could fill in details such as a user’s name, passport number, email address and physical addresses from their Google Account and services such as Google Wallet.

TechCrunch says Gmail suggestions may also include membership IDs, addresses, phone numbers and credit card numbers. Google says sensitive information shown as an autofill suggestion remains encrypted. The feature is an extension of Personal Intelligence, which already lets users connect Google apps to Gemini so it can retrieve details when answering questions.

## Who gets the feature?

The rollout is limited to US users, and having Chrome alone is not enough: users need Personal Intelligence enabled in Gemini. Google describes the feature as a way to find relevant details in email while filling out a form, rather than requiring people to open messages and copy the information themselves.

The available descriptions do not spell out which websites or form fields Chrome will recognize, or how reliably it will identify the right detail in a message. Users who do not want Gmail information used for suggestions can change enhanced autofill access in Chrome settings or turn it off.

## The facts

- Google began rolling out Gmail-based enhanced autofill to US users on October 28, 2026.
- The feature is available on desktop, Android and iOS for users with Personal Intelligence enabled in Gemini.
- Examples include package tracking numbers, flight and hotel booking details, and purchase order numbers.
- The Verge says earlier enhanced autofill could use details from Google Accounts and Google Wallet.
- Google says sensitive information shown in autofill suggestions remains encrypted.

## Why it matters

For someone filling out a travel, delivery or purchase form, Chrome may find a booking or order number in Gmail instead of requiring them to search for the confirmation message. The feature is optional and limited to US users with Personal Intelligence enabled; the available details do not say which forms it will recognize or how accurately it will find information.
