"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.

How do hackers get your password?
Even if you generate passwords to make sure they are as secure as possible, hackers can still get their hands on them. In addition to cracking your password, hackers can
breach an online service you use and steal your password from there
use a virus to log your keystrokes as you log in
trick you into giving your password to them with a phishing scam or social engineering
buy passwords from another hacker on an online black market
Modern hacking is a highly automated activity that targets millions of users at the same time. That’s why you should use one password only for one account, instead of using the same ones on different accounts. Even if someone gets your password, they can log into only a single account. Your other accounts are safe.

Why is it important to have a strong password?
Having a strong password makes it harder for criminals to steal your personal details. When you use a single password only for one account, criminals can’t break into all your accounts with just one stolen password.
Many online accounts include valuable personal details, like a phone number, credit card number, home address, birth date, etc. These details can be used to impersonate you online. Hackers could also log in to, for example, your Netflix or Amazon account, with a stolen password. If they change your password, you lose your account.

What is a strong password?
Hackers crack passwords with programs that test millions of alternatives in a second. Even so, cracking complex passwords could still take millions of years. The following factors make your password virtually unbreakable.
It’s unique — your password unlocks only one account, app, etc.
It’s at least 12 characters long
It includes uppercase and lowercase characters, numbers, and symbols
It can’t be guessed
It’s not commonly used — like password, 123456, qwerty, etc.

Hey. 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.
