    Does iCloud Keychain contain iPhone backup password?

    I recently made backup of my iPhone to my MacBook Pro. I selected option "Remember this password in my keychain". If I have enabled iCloud Keychain, will this password used to protect my iPhone backup be saved to iCloud Keychain?

    A few months ago I had noticed a strange website in my iCloud Keychain labelled as “share2Dlink” and another one called “page.link”. After a few days of conversing with people on Reddit I had just decided to delete the two off my keychain entirely. It wasn’t until today I had noticed they had re...

    Any way to use built-in iCloud Keychain + 2FA in third party apps via autofill?

    I LOVE the new 2FA in Monterey. I can frictionlessly log into almost any site, even including a 2FA code, all without doing much more than tapping my finger on the Touch ID button. But this really only works in Safari. Are there any third party utilities, or any other methods, of tapping the...

    General Third Party Password Managers

    I am totally naive about password managers. I am not sure why anyone would have a third party password manager, especially when using iOS 12. Can you guys please explain why I would want to subscribe to 1Password when using iOS 12? Thanks.
