How to Better manage passwords

-

Your keychain

Go to Settings > Passwords & Accounts. The top item shows the number of credential­s you’ve saved to your keychain. Tap that row to check you haven’t used any password in two places, which is a security risk.

Warning icon

After authentica­ting with your passcode, fingerprin­t or face, you’ll see the list of credential­s. Depending on how secure your password is you may spot a triangle, indicating iOS’s opinion that the password isn’t secure enough.

Change password

Tap on a password that displays the alert triangle and you’ll see an option to change that password on the relevant website; iOS guilts you into action by indicating how many times you’ve used this password, and where.
