How to View, Add, and Edit Your Safari Passwords on iPad

If you're an iPad user, you might be aware of the convenience that comes with having your website usernames and passwords stored securely in Safari. This feature allows you to access your favorite websites quickly and efficiently, without having to remember complex login credentials every time.

To view, add, or edit your Safari passwords on your iPad, follow these simple steps:

Viewing Your Saved Passwords

To view all of your saved passwords, open the Settings app on your iPad and scroll down to the 'Safari' section. Tap on 'Passwords' and enter your iPad passcode to access the list of saved websites and passwords.

The list is sorted alphabetically by website name, making it easy to find the password you need quickly. If you see exclamation points next to a password, that means it's been reused on more than one site or is easy to guess, so be sure to change those passwords regularly for added security.

Adding a New Password

To add a new password and username, open the Safari app on your iPad and navigate to the website you want to save. Tap the 'Share' icon (represented by a box with an arrow coming out of it) and select 'Add Password.' Fill in the required fields (website, username, and password) and tap the 'Add Password' button.

Editing or Changing a Password

To edit a password or website, select the website first by clicking on it and then click the Details button. From here, you can change any of the fields (password, username, etc.) as needed. Tap 'Done' to save your changes.

Removing a Password

If you need to remove a password from your iPad's Safari storage, simply select the password by clicking on it and then click the Remove button. If you're using iCloud Keychain, the selected password will be removed from iCloud Keychain on all your devices as well.

AutoFill and Search Functionality

Safari also offers AutoFill functionality, which allows you to automatically fill in usernames and passwords when logging into websites. To turn off AutoFill, simply uncheck the 'AutoFill usernames and passwords' box in the Settings app under the Safari section.

Additionally, Safari's search function makes it easy to find specific websites, usernames, or passwords if you have a lot of saved information. Just type in your search query in the search field at the top of the screen and hit enter to quickly locate what you're looking for.

With these simple steps, you can easily view, add, and edit your Safari passwords on your iPad. By taking advantage of these features, you'll be able to access your favorite websites quickly and securely, without having to remember complex login credentials every time.
