Haven’t backed up my iPad in a while, it broke so it needed to get replaced but lost all my keychain passwords

I haven’t backed my iPad in a while because my iCloud storage was full and didn’t have time to expand it. My iPad broke and it needed to get repaired. So I thought it would be fine until they aid they needed to replace it instead. My sister took it to the repair store and got me the new one. I checked the backups, not realising anything until I realised I lost all my photos and saved passwords, which have a lot of money on them. I already had my photos back but I’m wondering if there is any way that I could get my saved passwords from keychain back.

Hello MementosXX,

It would be hard to say that you could recover your lost Keychain passwords. Your only option would be to use the iCloud account that was previously signed in to that broken iPad.

You can use these steps to set up iCloud Keychain: Set up iCloud Keychain

If the passwords do not automatically populate. Then the passwords are not recoverable.

Hoping this helps out.

Take care.
