The use of web browsers is getting stronger every day and that is why developers must look for the best solutions so that the end user has the best features of these. Therefore, a limitation that we have is the use of our own browsers in different operating systems. We know, for example, that Microsoft Edge is integrated in Windows 10, Firefox in Linux, and Safari in macOS. There we find a specific situation that affects many people (speaking of Safari) and it is the impossibility of importing passwords from another browser , in this case Google Chrome, affecting its use..
This is due to the fact that as Google Chrome users we save our passwords in the browser to have faster access and if we forget them there will be no problem when entering. But with this Safari password failure we must enter each of the passwords of each website. Fortunately Apple thought of this and that is why starting with macOS Catalina 10.015.4, the Safari browser will have the option to import the Google Chrome passwords in a simple but effective way.
Note
To update macOS Catalina we must go to the path "Apple - System Preferences - Software Update"
