Key Points:
- Google introduces a new address card for central address management.
- Users can view, edit, and add addresses across various Google services.
- Profile, billing, and legal addresses are now easily accessible.
Google has streamlined address management by launching a new feature that centralizes all addresses associated with your Google Account. This update, communicated to users through email, highlights a new Addresses card on the myaccount.google.com > Personal info page. This feature aims to simplify the process of managing addresses used across various Google services.
The Addresses card categorizes addresses into Home, Work, and Other addresses, which includes data from first-party services. Users can see when and where each address was added and the last update made. Addresses from Google Pay, Chrome Autofill, and the Google payments center are included, and users have the flexibility to remove, edit, or add new addresses. Notably, any address added while using Google services in the future will automatically save to your Google Account.
Further down the page, users will find:
- Profile addresses: Linked to user profiles visible in certain Google apps and services.
- Billing addresses: Associated with payment methods.
- Legal addresses: Tied to the Google payments profile.
This comprehensive address management feature enhances user convenience by allowing addresses stored in the Google Account to autofill forms, reducing the need for repetitive data entry. This capability extends to Chrome Autofill, the Google Play Store, Google subscriptions, and transactions via Google Pay. By consolidating address information, Google aims to provide a more seamless and efficient user experience across its services.
