Tired of always having to log in? When you’re asked if you want to save the password for the
site, tap Yes. The next time you visit, your user name and password will be filled in for you.
Fill in a form. Tap any field to bring up the onscreen keyboard. Tap or above the keyboard to
move from field to field.
Fill it in automatically. Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & Autofill, then turn on Use Contact
Info. Then, tap AutoFill above the onscreen keyboard when you’re filling in the form. Not all
websites support AutoFill.
Add a credit card for purchases. Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & Autofill > Saved Credit
Cards > Add Credit Card. To enter the information without typing it, tap Use Camera, then hold
iPad above the card so that the image of the card fits in the frame. You can also add a credit
card by accepting when Safari offers to save it when you make an online purchase. See
iCloud
Keychain on page 42.
Use your credit card information. Look for the AutoFill Credit Card button above the onscreen
keyboard whenever you’re in a credit card field. Your card’s security code isn’t stored, so you still
enter that yourself. If you’re not using a passcode for iPad, you might want to start; see
Use a
passcode with data protection on page 41.
Submit the form. Tap Go, Search, or the link on the webpage.
