With so many websites requiring usernames and passwords, and most of us using more than one device to accomplish tasks throughout the day, it can be difficult to keep track of all our accounts and login information. And while there are plenty of apps that can do this for you, your iPhone comes with this service built in. iCloud Keychain encrypts, stores, and keeps up to date credit card information, WiFi network information, and usernames and passwords for internet accounts as well as your iOS Mail, Messages, Contacts, and Calendar apps across all your Apple devices on which you've turned on iCloud Keychain. Enabling your iCloud Keychain is a great way to keep yourself organized, so let’s get started learning how to enable it on your iPhone.
