All my stored passwords were deleted by my iPad, is there any way to get them back?

Can you help me retrieve my lost passwords??

If all your stored password credentials have been lost, this would suggest that you have disabled Keychain on your device.


If Keychain was enabled in iCloud, you may still be able to recover your Passwords from iCloud - but be aware that at least one device must remain signed-in to iCloud with Keychain in iCloud enabled. Otherwise, your Keychain will be irretrievably deleted from iCloud.


Settings > [Your Name /AppleID] > iCloud > Keychain > iCloud Keychain - set to ON
