Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to sharing a user credential between computing devices. In some embodiments, a first computing device stores a set of user credentials usable to authenticate a user and receives, from a second computing device, a request for a user credential to be provided responsive to an authentication prompt associated with the second computing device. In such an embodiment, the request includes an indication of a service for which the authentication prompt is being presented. Based on the indication, the first computing device determines whether the stored set of user credentials includes a user credential relevant to the authentication prompt and presents a selection prompt asking a user of the first computing device to select a one of the stored set of user credentials to provide to the second computing device for authentication to the service, the relevant user credential being identified in the selection prompt.

Abstract: Described is a system (and method) for automatically populating login credentials for an application such as a third-party application (or app) installed on a device. These applications are often associated with an entity that may operate or control a website, service, or another application. For example, browsers often store login credentials (e.g. username and password) of previously visited websites. Accordingly, the system may retrieve applicable login credentials for the application in response to verifying the application is authorized to be associated with the website associated with the retrieved password. Accordingly, the system may provide a convenient and safe mechanism to retrieve applicable login credentials even in instances where a developer of the application has not provided an explicit capability of such a feature.
