How to Change autofill email information on iphone

my fix was easy.

1) unlink contacts in fb settings

2) change desired autofill email label to 'email'

3) return and link fb contacts again

now only my non fb 'email' appears.

Update to my previous post...when you relabel the email you wish to use, and move it to the top of the list, be sure you use a upper case E. "Email".

I found it easier to just create a new contact with all the information that I want correct and just added my middle initial. Then go to Safari and link it to that new contact. I don't fill filled everything I wanted in there.

Easy as pie

Hi I like all others was extremely annoyed by this as I use autofill for everything. After reading thought the threads and an hour of playing around I got it to work!

As per some of the instructions I amended my other two email addresses (work and personal) the third was the frustrating Facebook address.

I changed both using the custom function to "Email" then tried autofilling a form, ironically this worked, however, it used my work email!

After more playing around I established that by changing the email address that comes first in your contact to the one you wish to use most autofill will select this each time.

I then went back and changed the description to personal and work respectively and now autofill works a treat with my personal email.

Hope this helps :)

THANK YOU This worked perfectly!!!!! I read all these suggestions until I glazed over and tried stuff for hours but your suggestion worked perfectly in 2 minutes!!!!!!

Thank you again

Here's what you said:

Here what I did since just changing my label didn't work

- go to your settings/facebook and turn off contacts

- go to your made contact and scroll to bottom of page and click share contact

- send an email to yourself with the contact

- open the file it sends to your e-mail and it will open that contact (it will ask if you want to make a new contact, yes you do!!! Lol)

- go back to settings/facebook and turn contacts back on

- go to settings/Safari/autofill/my info

- choose the new contact you just made

Work around id unnecessary as the "problem" can be fixed by editing the settings option on Facebook. Facebook creates the username@facebook.com for each member as the user name and email address would be unique. From settings edit your email addresses so the one you want to use on iPhone is the primary email account. It makes it easier for Facebook and Apple to work together this way. By default anywhere when anyone emails username@facebook.com Facebook will reroute the email to the primary email address you have chosen under settings on your Facebook account. This way anyone can choose to get email at any email address that the wish while making it simpler to disperse your address to people and easier for others to email you. All they need to reach you by email is see your Facebook user name and contact you @facebook.com

Sorry to revive a dead thread, but I found a solution to this. In contacts, tap your own contact, click edit, scroll to the bottom, the unlink the contact from Facebook. Now go into settings>safari>auto fill and passwords, then change the auto fill contact to another random contact. Then, change it back to your own. This fixed it for me withour losing contact integration.

Amanda, you're brilliant! That really helped a lot. Thank you so much

I Found out how to keep the Facebook connection in tact while disabling the Facebook email from auto fill...

Go to account settings in Facebook (web) -> general -> email

Untick "use your Facebook email"

You may need to then re sync your Facebook contacts.

Perfect!!!! It worked like a charm!!
