• Your iPhone keeps a list of all your saved passwords, and has a menu to let you find passwords when you need them.
  • The passwords are located in the Passwords & Accounts section of the iPhone’s Settings app.
  • You can use Settings to delete passwords you no longer need, edit them, or use Settings to open websites to revise your passwords.

If you practice good online security, you should have a unique, strong password for every web site you visit – that means you don’t repeat passwords, and you make them complex with a lengthy combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols.

Of course, you can’t possibly remember all those passwords, which is why Safari on your iPhone offers to remember them for you. Usually, Safari suggests auto-filling the right password at the appropriate time, but you can also display and manage the complete set of remembered passwords as well.
