Apple Passwords is the standalone password management app for Apple Account users, an upgrade from the existing iCloud Keychain password feature. Passwords looks and feels more like other premium password managers on the market, though its primary use case is saving and filling usernames and passwords for website accounts across your Apple devices. This makes it a solid choice for users in the Apple ecosystem, especially those who are either new to password management or who want an app that’s integrated into the operating system.

Passwords is free and built in for those running newer versions of Apple’s OSes (iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and visionOS 2 and up) and syncs as long as you are logged into your Apple Account. Both of these facts further lower the barrier to entry for getting started with password management using Apple Passwords.
