"Suggest strong password" is available on Chrome for Android as explained here:
When you want to generate a secure password:
- Turn on sync in Chrome.
- Go to a website and sign up for an account.
- Tap on the password text box.
- Tap Suggest strong password.
- If you don't see this option, tap Password Save your password and then Suggest strong password.
- You'll see a preview of the password. To confirm, tap Use password.
- Finish signing up for your account. Your password is automatically saved to Chrome.
However, there is an issue with newer versions of Chrome that does not allow the suggestion to appear as testified here or here by many. As suggested on those links, removing the Chrome updates allows the suggestion message to appear.

You can also try to change your autofill service as suggested on one of the posted links.
Or you just wait for future versions to fix the issue.
Answer from Reddy Lutonadio on Stack ExchangeHey. I switched from firefox to chrome a couple days ago. What I always loved about firefox is the built in pw manager. I love that it auto generated strong pws for me and automatically saved them. Apparently chrome has this feature too but yet I can't find it. I already used google to find answers but I couldn't find anything.
Yes SYNC is turned on. Yes I tried it on popular websites, it's not even working on google.com itself.
Yes I right clicked in the PW field, there is no "suggest password" field there. Only the usual like inspect, paste, spellcheck and so on. I simply don't have any pw suggestion field anywhere and it's driving me crazy. This is unironically a deal breaker for me and I will switch back to firefox if I can't solve this.
NO I don't want to use any third party app like last pass or whatever. I want it built in.
Further information: When I left click on a PW field it, instead of suggestion me a new strong pw it just shows me the name + pws of accounts that I ALREADY have created. Which makes no sense. I don't want the SAME password again. I want a new one.
I imported all of my pws from firefox to chrome. Is this what is causing this bug maybe?
In any case I hope you can help me. I really really want to use the built in PW manager.
