No more do you have to remember passwords on your phone. Here's how to sync Edge Chromium for Android with your Windows 10 Edge's Favorites, Password and History. Here's the steps to take to ensure you have sync turned on both devices and you have selected the items you wish to sync. You'll never be stuck at a website and you don't have the password to login. It's all protected. Just remember to have a password lock on your phone in case you lose it or it gets stolen.

It's pretty easy to get to the sync settings on your Edge browser. Just open it and go to the top right and click on your image and then 'Manage Profile Settings'.
