Chrome 154 Brings Email Verification to Android

Google has extended its Email Verification origin trial to Chrome for Android in Chrome 154, bringing an email auto-confirmation option to mobile users. The move follows months of work on the desktop version of the feature, according to Android Authority.

With the update, a Verified Email section appears under Settings > Addresses and more in Chrome, alongside an "Automatically confirm your emails" toggle. When enabled, supported sites can confirm a user's email address through the browser using a signed verification token, sparing users a trip to their inbox.

The feature requires support on both ends: the email provider and the website must each back Google's verification protocol before it will work. That means availability will vary by site and provider rather than applying across the board.

Consolidating Google's email verification efforts

Google says it is working to make Chrome's Email Verification and Android's Verified Email system more consistent — a hint that the two mechanisms may converge further. Android's separate Verified Email system, which lets apps retrieve a verified address through digital credentials, arrived earlier in 2026 and is not the same as the Chrome origin trial.

The Chrome feature has been taking shape on desktop for months before this Android rollout. Separately, Gmail recently started showing a "Copy code" shortcut in the inbox for 2FA emails.
