Create website and app passwords on iPhone
When you sign up for services on websites and in apps, you can let iPhone create strong passwords for many of your accounts, or you can create your own passwords. iPhone stores the passwords in iCloud Keychain and fills them in for you automatically, so you don’t have to memorize them. If you use the same password in more than one account, iPhone flags it for you to change.
Note: For iPhone to create and store passwords, iCloud Keychain must be turned on. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Keychain.

For supported websites and apps, iPhone suggests a unique, complex password.
Do one of the following:
Choose the suggested password: Tap Use Strong Password.
Make up your own password: Tap Choose My Own Password.
To later allow iPhone to automatically fill in the password for you, tap Yes when you’re asked if you want to save the password.
