This feature is the iOS Passwords app, a complimentary and quite efficient password manager that you can utilize not only on your iPhone but also across other Apple devices like an iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro.
The Passwords app made its debut with iOS 18 and comes loaded with numerous features that have been part of iOS for a long time, often concealed within settings. One notable feature, termed Security Recommendations, indicates which of your stored passwords have been compromised in a data breach and reused across multiple accounts. It can also highlight weak passwords. This functionality is notably convenient and useful, as it allows you to identify precisely which of your account credentials are vulnerable, enabling you to take action by modifying those passwords and potentially safeguarding your accounts from cybercriminals. Here’s how to access Security Recommendations for your passwords.
