Passwords are working but the Passwords folder is missing from Settings on my iPad Air and iPhone XR, since the latest update to 18.0.1. Please advise how to access Passwords. Thank you.
iPad Air, iPadOS 18
Having updated to iOS/iPadOS 18.x, you will not find your saved Passwords in iPhone or iPad device settings. All saved passwords have been migrated to the new Passwords App.

You're very welcome.
Addition of the Passwords App - and loss of finding saved Passwords in device settings, will no doubt have caught many established users of iOS/iPadOS by surprise.
It is perhaps worth noting that your WiFi Passwords, in addition to being accessible in the Passwords App, remain accessible as before via device settings:
Settings > WiFi - tap the blue Edit button at top-right of the settings page

The new Passwords App is only available to devices that have been updated to iOS/iPadOS 18.x.
As already outlined in my earlier reply, WiFi Passwords are accessible (exactly as before - per iPadOS 16/17) via device settings:
Settings > WiFi - tap the blue Edit button at top-right of the settings page
Looks like 3 colored keys and you probably already have it downloaded. Go to your Apple App Store and search for Apple Passwords.

Thank you LotusPilot. Solved my dilemma.
