Passwords

Since updating iPad to 16.4.1(a) my iPad will no longer fill in my saved passwords and when I visit a new site it won’t suggest a strong password or give me the option to save it. How do I fix this problem?

Try a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clean an isolated software issue:


Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)

If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:

  1. Press and quickly release the volume button nearest to the top button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume button farthest from the top button.
  3. Press and hold the top button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the top button.




Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)

Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
