Websites & App Passwords

Hi,


Why are apple devices displaying the passwords in the clear text format under Setting ->Passwords & Accounts -> Website & App Passwords menu


Isn't a security hole?.


Thank you.

When you signed in to the phone with your strong passcode and then used your Apple ID and password and possibly 2FA, you cleared security.
