ios 15 not remembering account passwords

Changing the time zone in icloud.com worked for me. The screen said it was central but once I drilled down to change it it was set to pacific. This may not work for everyone but it I have not had to enter my password today. I used to have to update it everyday and I could tell it wasn't saving my password because I had recently added a letter to it and when I went into the mail account my password was missing a letter. This was only on my work outlook email on the mail app in my iphone. My gmail was working fine.

iphone 12 pro 15.0.2

I am having exactly the same issue since upgrading to iOS 15. My work Exchange account is prompting everyday for me to log in. I put the password in and it’s fine. Calendar is the same but obviously it also comes from Exchange. I had none of these issues before IOS 15. I have decreased my account for Exchange on my phone. No difference. I have checked time zones. No difference.

I had to delete Exchange from the phone mail app and download the outlook app.

it’s working now, I just have to two mail/calendar/contacts apps right now.

hopefully they will fix it soon and I can have it all in one place again.

on the plus side… I can look at my personal email without those pesky work e-mail’s gabbing my attention!! LOL!

This exact issue is happening on our iphones and iPads. It never happened before the update and it is only an issue with outlook. It is driving me crazy so I finally came searching for the answer. I see that there is no answer and agree this is unacceptable. It is clearly a bug that should not be ignored and needs to be fixed. People who use outlook generally use it for work and do not have time for this problem. Apple, please fix this problem!

Yes, I’m experiencing the same issue. When I launch the Outlook app, I have to re-add my account and sign in. I stay signed in for about 60 seconds, and then I’m prompted to sign in again. My company uses Authenticator, so it’s more than just a sign in and makes it almost impossible to use the app. This started after I installed iOS 15 on my 2020 iPhone SE.

I am having the same issue with my Outlook email, I have to re-enter my password for my Exchange account daily. This only started happening after the iOS update to 15. I still have 14.8.1 on my iPad and do not have this issue.

I'm simply trying set up a new mail account on a new iphone 13 using 15.1. After entering Name, Email, Password, and Description, it tells me that no password was entered, and the mail account is not saved. Clearly it has been entered.

100%. This is getting so irritating. 4 passwords out of 200 in my passwords section. I’ve done every fox online I could find. Resetting phone. Signing out of iCloud, iMessages, facetime, etc. restored phone…nothing. It not only erased the passwords on my safari, it also erased most of my app logins (but not all strangely). I’ve been loyal to iPhone and apple for a decade but my Next phone will be android.

Yes Apple, millions of customers are having this issue and have been for months and months. When a meaningful "update" is actually needed then we hear nothing from you. The mature thing to do is first admit you have a problem. Think of it as your own kind of "AA" - Apple Anonymous. We are here to help you Apple.

similar issue here. standard imap account (not exchange). vendor servers changed, so the incoming and outgoing host changed. iphone and ipad paired with icloud. deleted imap account from both devices. upon trying to newly add the once-existing account into the ipad with the new host info - the entered password is immediately forgotten during verification. re-entering the password gets as far as the 1st sync with the imap server in the mail app, then outgoing password is lost. rinse and repeat.

I have 5 email accounts and I have the same issue - it is only happening with the 2 Exchange hosted emails.

I resolved this - I had to remove the email account and re-add it. I have not had a failure since I did this.

Removing and then re-adding the account did not resolve my issue.
