Apple is set to introduce a new app called Passwords at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC). This app is a password manager that can also support verification codes and serve as an authentication app, similar to Google Authenticator. The Passwords app is powered by iCloud Keychain, which allows users to sync their passwords and passkeys across Apple devices.
Previously, this functionality was tucked away within the settings app or presented when a user logs into their account. Now, Apple has turned it into a dedicated app. The move is aimed at encouraging users to use more secure passwords and promote the privacy of its devices.
The Passwords app will create a list of your passwords and passkeys, and it will also break up your logins into separate categories like accounts, Wi-Fi networks, passkeys, and more. When you go on a website to log into an account, Passwords can autofill the data for you.
The Passwords app will arrive as part of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS 15. It will reportedly also work with the Vision Pro and Windows computers.
