The best solution is to set unique and complex passwords for all your accounts. But that introduces a new challenge: remembering all your passwords. A password manager saves you from having to remember your passwords. If you're using an iPhone, iCloud Keychain does it for you. It stores all your passwords and can auto-fill them whenever needed. Like on Chrome.

If you ever want to enter your password manually, here's how you can view saved passwords on your iPhone via iCloud Keychain.

What is iCloud Keychain

Your iPhone has something known as iCloud Keychain built into iOS. iCloud Keychain saves all the passwords you enter securely on your iPhone. You can then use iCloud Keychain to autofill your passwords in apps and websites just by using Touch ID. Face ID or your iPhone's passcode.

It's convenient because you won't have to remember or even manually enter your passwords repeatedly when you want to log into an app or website. What's even better is that iCloud Keychain syncs across your devices so you can also save and use your passwords on a Mac and iPad.

What passwords does iCloud Keychain save

Whenever an app or website asks you to enter your password, iCloud Keychain will first ask you if you want to automatically generate a secure password. If you choose to do so, iCloud Keychain will generate a password and store it. iCloud Keychain will automatically enter the password the next time you try to sign in.

The other option is to set a custom password, then iCloud Keychain asks if you want to save it. If you choose to save it, iCloud Keychain will automatically enter the password the next time you sign in.

How to View Saved Passwords on Your iPhone

If you ever forget your password and want to enter it on another device, you can access your password through iCloud Keychain on your iPhone. Here's how.

Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone.

Step 2: Scroll down until you find the Passwords option. Press it.

Step 3: Your iPhone will now ask you to scan your Face ID or Touch ID depending on which iPhone you have. You can also enter your password alternatively.

Step 4: This will unlock all your saved usernames and passwords on various apps and websites.

Step 5: Scroll or use the search bar to find the app/website whose password you want to recover.

Step 6: Tap on the result.

Step 7: You can see your username and password used for this app or service. You'll also see alerts here telling you if you're at risk of using the same password elsewhere, or if your password has been compromised in a data breach.

If you want to know your passwords on other services, go back and enter the relevant app or website in the search bar, and you'll find it. Alternatively, you can also choose to remove a passcode from your iPhone.

How to check for compromised passwords on iPhone

iCloud Keychain also has a nifty feature where it can detect if any of the passwords you use have been compromised. You can then change your compromised passwords to prevent data theft. Here's how you can check if any of your saved passwords have been compromised.

Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
