How to view saved passwords on iPhone

The main storage location for passwords on mobile devices from the EPL is an account, or rather, the branded cloud storage that is provided with it. In addition, if you are actively using Google services, in particular, the browser, passwords for access to sites will be stored in the account attached to it.

The iPhone is quite difficult to use without an Apple ID account, and if you want to store in ICloud not only photos and videos, but also data of applications, accounts and some other information, without this cloud and it is impossible to do without this. In it, passwords are stored, but only on condition that you have previously allowed it. In order to view the information you are interested in within the framework of today, do the following:

  1. Open the "Settings" of the iPhone and scroll down them down.
  2. View settings to search for saved passwords on the iPhone
