How to stop Safari from suggesting strong password

I do no want this feature enabled. I do want my regular password to be used so turning to auto fill-in is not an option. How can i turn this off?

This is particularly frustrating when filling in random forms and safari adds a "strong password" into the fields even though a password may not have even been asked for and I need to delete it making the process of filling in the form slower.

Hey, zz11zz.


I see that you're wanting to turn off the strong password suggestion in Safari. I'm glad to help.


Autofill credit cards, contacts, and passwords in Safari on Mac -- The strong, hard-to-guess password is suggested to you when you have iCloud Keychain set up on your Mac. 


Set up iCloud Keychain -- Before you turn it off, review the information in this article to see what the benefits are of using iCloud Keychain. Scroll down to the "Frequently asked questions" section for the information.


Take care.
