iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your website usernames and passwords, and credit card information
that you set up with Safari, up to date on iPad and your other designated iOS devices and
Mac computers.
iCloud Keychain works with Safari Password Generator and AutoFill. When you’re setting up a
new account, Safari Password Generator suggests unique, hard-to-guess passwords for better
account security. You can use AutoFill to have iPad enter your user name and password info,
making login easy. See Fill in forms on page 41.
Note: Some web sites do not support AutoFill.
iCloud Keychain works on all your approved iOS 7 devices<<and Macs running OS X
Mavericks>>|. iCloud Keychain is secured with 256-bit AES encryption during storage and
transmission, and cannot be read by Apple.
Set up iCloud Keychain. Go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain. Turn on iCloud Keychain and
follow the onscreen instructions. If you’ve set up iCloud Keychain on other devices, you need to
approve use of iCloud Keychain from one of those devices, or use your iCloud Security Code.
Important: Your iCloud Keychain security code is encrypted, and cannot be retrieved by Apple. If
you forget your security code, you’ll have to start over and set up your iCloud Keychain again.
Set up AutoFill. Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & AutoFill. Make sure Names and Passwords
and Credit Cards are turned on (they’re on by default). To add credit card info, tap Saved
Credit Cards.
The security code for your credit card is not saved—you have to enter that manually.
To automatically ll in names, passwords, or credit card info on sites that support it, tap a text-
entry eld, then tap AutoFill.

Tracking to prevent apps from accessing your iPad advertising identier. For more information,
