Automatically Delete one Time Passwords In Messages

Can an iphone be set to automatically delete one time passwords (or authorization codes) in messages even if the password (or authorization code) is needed for a different device than the one receiving the message? I regularly need to receive an authorization code on my iPhone for logging into an account on a different device.


iPhone 12

Hello IGrock,


It all depends on what the other device is. You could try that, though, on your iPhone:


  1. Go to Settings  > General > Autofill & Passwords.
  2. Under Verification Codes, tap Delete After Use, then turn it on.
