Share all passcodes to family without having to manually swipe

Hi, I’m trying to share all my passcodes to my family (I have a lot, I mean a lot of passcodes built up over many years) and want to share all of them to my family without me having to manually press every single one. Is there a way? Thanks. iOS 17.

Hello N04H_,


We understand you want to know if there is a way to share passwords to family without having to manually swipe each one separately. We're here to help.


The steps below will walk you through the process of creating a group and how to share passcodes with them.


"Create a group

  1. Go to Settings  > Passwords.
  2. Tap A blue plus sign in the top-right corner, then tap New Shared Group.
  3. Enter a name for the group, then tap A blue plus sign Add People (under Group Members).
  4. Type the name, email address, or phone number of the person or people you want to add, then tap Add.

  5. Note: To add someone to your group, they must be in your Contacts app and have a device using iOS 17, iPadOS 17, macOS Sonoma, or later. If they can be added to the group, their contact information appears in blue. If it appears in gray, their iPhone, iPad, or Mac might not support shared password groups.
  6. Tap Create.
  7. Select the passwords you want to share with the group, then tap Move in the top-right corner.
  8. If you don’t want to share any passwords yet, tap Not Now in the top-left corner.
  9. You are given the choice to notify the people you have added to the group that they have been invited. If you choose not to, they can also access the invitation by going to Settings > Passwords > Group Invitations.

Your shared passwords are saved in iCloud Keychain, and you can use them like any other saved password."
