How to view passwords locked behind faceID and touchID?

I have been trying to "view" my Apple ID password without resetting it. I recently reset it and it's allowing me to log in on both my Mac and my iPhone with touch and faceID but the Apple ID password is not showing up in my keychain. How do I view this password????

iPhone 15, iOS 17

Hi caci137,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! To view saved password on your device, the article below can help:


Find saved passwords and passkeys on your iPhone


1. Tap Settings, then scroll down and tap Passwords.
2. Use Face ID or Touch ID when prompted, or enter your passcode.
3. To view a password or passkey, select a website or app.

If you can't find a saved password or passkey
•Make sure that you're viewing all of your passwords and passkeys. The Settings screen should say Passwords at the top, rather than a shared password group name or My Passwords.
•Check your Recently Deleted: In Settings, scroll down and tap Passwords. Then tap Recently Deleted.
•If you have multiple Apple devices, make sure that iCloud Keychain is turned on.
•When you move a password or passkey to a shared password group, that password or passkey is visible only on devices with compatible software. If you can't find a saved password or passkey that you moved to a shared group on another device, make sure that your iPhone has iOS 17 or later.


Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
