9 Use Third-Party Password Keepers
Another underrated feature is Apple’s Keychain feature. It allows you to generate and save passwords, AutoFill usernames and passwords, and sync your login credentials across your Apple devices. One drawback to Keychain is that it’s not available on non-Apple platforms. So if you use an Android phone for work or your computer is a Windows PC (shame on you) then you can’t easily sync passwords across these devices.
Of course, you could always use a third-party password keeper (i.e. 1Password), but they didn’t integrate with Safari and most of your apps.. That was, until now.
iOS 12 now let’s users use third-party password keepers in addition to Keychain. To enable another password keeper, just go to
- Settings
- Passwords & Accounts
- AutoFill Passwords and select the apps you want to use under “Allow Filling From.”
