    Safari repeatedly requests keychain password to autopopulate web site passwords

    After updating to 10.14.4, now Safari is asking me repeatedly for my keychain password to autofill passwords into web sites. How can I get this to be less frequent, or as before it didn't require me to do it each time??

    Safari Freezing

    Cannot quite pin this one down. Browsing any site more than occasionally of late my Safari freezes. Hitting refresh will clear it or hitting forward if I have just hit back. The reverse is also true. Cannot find a reason for this but it is happening more often:( Any ideas? Regards

    Stop autoplay videos in Safari

    I know that Safari can stop autoplay videos on the Mac, but can it do it on iOS? My searches have turned up nothing. I find it annoying that my music gets hijacked by these autoplay videos.

    Is there a standalone bookmarks manager for Safari? The built-in bookmarks manager sucks. The closest I have found is Pins, but it's not perfect because it cannot directly edit Safari bookmark XML files.
