How to Edit Saved Passwords in Safari on Mac

Do you use Safari’s built-in password manager to quickly log in to your favorite websites on the Mac? If so, you might want to learn how you can update this stored login data whenever you change the password for one of your online accounts.

Although Safari autofill and keychain integration makes it so that you don’t have to remember your passwords again, you will run into issues if you change the password for any of your accounts. Since the password that’s stored in Safari is now the old password, you will no longer be able to sign in to the website using this data. However, you can avoid this issue by manually editing the saved password to make sure it’s up to date. So, similar to how you can add passwords to Safari Autofill on Mac you can also update and edit those login credentials too.

In this article, we’ll discuss how you can update and edit saved login information, user names, and passwords in Safari on Mac.

How to Edit Saved Usernames & Passwords in Safari on Mac

Updating the passwords saved by Safari over time is a fairly simple and straightforward procedure on macOS systems. Just follow the steps below to get started.

How to Edit Saved Passwords in Safari on Mac

There you go. Now you’ve learned how to update the passwords stored in Safari manually. Pretty easy, right?

Thanks to this feature, you can view the password details for all of your online accounts in one place and find the ones that are outdated. Once you change the password here, the updated data is securely stored in the keychain and synced across all your other Apple devices with the help of iCloud – assuming you use iCloud Keychain anyway. If you don’t use iCloud Keychain, the updated password information only impacts the Safari browser on the Mac where the login details were updated or edited.

In addition to being able to edit and update the passwords that are used by Safari to quickly log you in, you’re also able to manually type in new account information to autofill for websites as well as remove the outdated passwords that are still stored in Safari .

Alternatively, you can use the Keychain Access software to change the password for any of your online accounts. If you’re not aware, Keychain Access stores password information for all the sign-ins you’ve made from your Mac and not just Safari. However, similar to Safari, Keychain Access can be used to recover any of your lost or forgotten passwords within a matter of seconds.

This feature has existed in Safari on the Mac for quite some time, so this capability should exist on your computer as long as it’s running a relatively recent version of Mac OS.

We hope you were able to manually edit the saved passwords in Safari without any issues. What are your overall thoughts on Safari’s built-in password management solution? How does it stack up to popular third-party password managers like 1password, LastPass, and Dashlane? Do share your valuable opinions and experience below.

It can be frustrating when you need to log into a site on a different device or browser but you’ve lost the password. Luckily, if you've previously stored that password using Safari on iPhone or iPad , you can easily retrieve it. Here’s how.

First, launch "Settings," which can usually be found on the first page of your Home screen or on your Dock.

Scroll down the list of Settings options until you see "Passwords & Accounts." Tap it.

In the "Passwords & Accounts" section, tap "Website & App Passwords."

After you pass authentication (using Touch ID, Face ID, or your passcode), you will see a list of saved account information organized alphabetically by website name. Scroll through or use the search bar until you find the entry with the password you need. Tap it.

On the next screen, you will see account info in detail, including the username and the password.

If possible, memorize the password quickly and try to avoid writing it down on paper. If you often have trouble managing passwords, it's better to use a password manager instead .

Safari Password Manager: How to save, view and manage passwords in Apple's browser

Thanks to iCloud Keychain, you can save browser username and password combinations.

  • Quick steps

Tools and Requirements

Step by step guide to using the safari password manager, final thoughts.

You probably already know about iCloud if you're using at least one Apple device. The cloud storage and synchronization service allows it to store and access content across multiple devices, including Mac, iPhone, iPad, and more.  These include files and information like documents, photos, music, video, and contacts.

Apple's iCloud service is also at the heart of the iCloud Keychain , where you can store website usernames/passwords, among other items. In this how-to, we're concentrating on how to add, edit, and delete Safari password content. Similar tools are available on other browsers like Microsoft Edge and Mozilla Firefox . 

  • You should also consider the best browsers and best secure browsers .  

Steps for saving, viewing and managing passwords

  • Before you can save any username/password combinations, you must first be sure to have an Apple ID or iCloud account.
  • From there, you can begin adding usernames and passwords for websites you frequent. 
  • You can also take advantage of Apple's new passkey feature. 
  • Safari is only available on Apple devices such as Mac, iPhone, and iPad. 

1. Go into the manager

Safari passwords

To get started, you must first create an Apple ID . The username/password combinate is usable across all Apple devices to log into iCloud.com. You can proceed once you have an Apple ID and are logged into your device. 

On Mac, the Safari password manager is located by choosing Safari on the menu bar at the top left of your Mac. From there, click Settings from the pull-down menu. 

Next, click on the Passwords option at the top. Input your password as needed. 

2. Adjust existing password settings

Safari change password

You can adjust password information in the iCloud Keychain directly from Safari. To get started, go into the Passwords section of Mac Settings (see above) and log in as necessary. Then, use the search box on the left side of the display to find the password information you wish to change. Click Edit . 

You can change the username and password for a website and add notes when applicable. After making a change, click Save . 

Click Delete Password to delete the password information. 

Thanks to iCloud, any changes you make here will also be reflected in other Apple devices that use your Apple ID. 

4. Using Autofill in Safari

Safari password

With AutoFill, you can fill in your previously saved usernames and website passwords. The tool is also a great way to add a new username/password combination for the first time and to create a strong password. 

You will see AutoFill pop up when a website asks you to create a password.

You will see an Autofill prompt In Safari when it's time to use or create a password. 

Click the AutoFill Key button, then choose Suggest New Password . For optimal security, you should use the suggested strong password. However, if you choose not to use the suggested password, you can easily select the password field, click “ Don’t Use ,” and enter your preferred password.

From there, enter the rest of the required information to create the website account.

Why use a separate password manager instead of a browser?

While most web browsers have their own password management feature, except for Safari which incorporates it into iCloud Keychain, in-browser password managers have limitations. They can only be used with one specific browser and cannot be accessed from other browsers. On the other hand, standalone password managers are compatible with any browser on your device, making them a more versatile option. Moreover, it is important to consider security when choosing a password manager. Browsers are not updated as frequently as standalone password managers, which can pose a security risk in case of a breach.

Does Safari have a built-in VPN?

Like many other browsers, Safari does not come with a pre-installed VPN. However, several reliable third-party VPNs like ExpressVPN, NordVPN, and SurfShark can easily be integrated with Safari. With a VPN, you can significantly boost the security and privacy of your online activities.

Are browser password managers safe?

To guarantee the safety of your passwords, using browser password managers like Safari with encryption is a great first step. However, there are additional measures you can take to further enhance your protection. It is highly recommended to create a strong and secure master password. The newest optional feature in Microsoft Edge mandates that you input your master password before making any changes to the password manager, thereby adding an extra layer of security. Regularly backing up your password manager is also a wise precaution in case of loss or theft. Another crucial step is creating a Firefox profile, allowing content synchronization across devices. This ensures that any changes made on your computer are reflected on your mobile device and vice versa.

What is iCloud Keychain?

iCloud Keychain is a highly reliable password manager that securely stores sensitive information such as passwords and credit card details in an online vault as part of Apple’s iCloud suite of services. Users can easily access their stored data by simply logging in to the same iCloud account on any Apple device. Thanks to the end-to-end encryption feature, user data is protected and can only be accessed by the user, even in the unlikely event of an iCloud account breach. Furthermore, the two-factor authentication feature provides an extra layer of security to user accounts, ensuring that they remain safe and secure at all times.

What are Apple Passkeys?

Apple Passkeys hope to eliminate the need for passwords eventually. This authentication method adheres to industry standards and guarantees improved security features while streamlining the login experience.

Passkeys create a unique cryptographic key pair for every website or application you use. The website or app stores the public key while the private one remains on your device. When you log in, your device produces a cryptographic signature using the private key. The website or application can then authenticate your identity by verifying this signature. With Passkeys, you can rest assured that your online security is in good hands.

Like passwords, passkeys are kept in Apple's iCloud Keychain. 

The built-in Safari password manager, part of the iCloud Keychain, makes tracking website usernames and passwords easier. Better still, those items carry over to other Apple devices, including iPhone and iPad. In the coming years, Apple hopes to eliminate the need for passwords and replace them with more secure passkeys. However, username and password combinations remain the most popular choice for website authentication.

How to update your passwords with Apple’s Security Recommendations

Passwords preference pane icon

Despite the rise of two-factor authentication, password security remains a top priority. Unless your password is unique, relatively long, and hasn’t been found in a database breach as plain text, you should probably change it. For some sites, you might not have changed the password in years–or ever. (Conversely, if any password for a given site you use is unique, long, and unbreached, there’s no valid reason to change it.)

Apple offers a tool to help you fix your worst passwords. Security Recommendations can be found in iOS/iPadOS in Settings > Passwords . In macOS, find it in System Settings > Passwords (Ventura); or System Preferences > Passwords (Monterey); or Safari > Preferences/Settings > Passwords (all macOS versions). It’s easiest to manage on macOS, so the examples below come from Ventura.

The recommendations are divided into High Priority Recommendations and Other Recommendations. For me, I had 18 in the former category and 68 in the other. (If you don’t have any High Priority Recommendations, it may just show a list.) It’s not clear why Apple promotes some entries into the high-priority category. With my account, items listed as high priority include a financial site, a government (.gov) site, and several Apple sites. The other sites included don’t necessarily have anything in common–possibly the shortness of the password or how commonly used a word in the password was.

safari update password

Warnings listed by Apple

Here’s what you’ll see as warnings in both high-priority and standard-priority entries:

Commonly used password:  Passwords identified as commonly used come from the result of years of password leaks. Passwords used by many people can now be easily found on the Internet by anyone, much less criminals or other attackers. Apple notes, “Many people use this password, which makes it easy to guess.” I’ve found a number of test accounts in this category—accounts I set up and never used or that were set up for me temporarily. The passwords have been as poor as the letter  a  and the word   password . (These matches are made via information Apple stores on your computer.)

Crackers who gain access to an account database that lacks proper modern protections that render identical passwords as unique cryptographically obscure entries will run a list of the most commonly breached passwords first. This lets them find low-hanging fruit.

Commonly used word.  Apple warns you if you’re using a common word, one that’s short and in frequent use in your language. Password crackers used to run through common words to crack passwords; that may be outdated because of changes in how passwords are stored. But it’s still unwise to have a password that’s all or mostly a common word.

Database leaks.  Passwords specifically found in database leaks, whether common or not. Apple’s explanation is that “This password has appeared in a data leak, which puts this account at high risk of compromise.” These matches are made remotely by Apple against data from breaches compiled by reputable security sources that Apple has licensed, acquired, and stored using a clever cryptographic approach that prevents them from transmitting your exact password. Their list contains 1.5 billion passwords. You can opt out, however, by disabling Detect Leaked Passwords.

People attempting to break into accounts will also use less commonly found passwords depending on the computational resources they have available. If a password you use (you alone or also by other people in the world) has ever leaked as plain text, you can’t be sure that someone can’t attack your account with it.

Reused passwords.  Apple notes this for passwords that you use across multiple sites. The text reads, “You’re reusing this password on “ domain “, which increases the risk to this account if your “ domain ” account is compromised.”

Once, it was common wisdom to pick a strong password–at the time, one that was a random sequence of 8 characters, later as long as 12–and use it everywhere. The advice was to change it from time to time. That advice expired long ago. Now, you should use a password manager, like the built-in one in Apple’s operating systems, to create and store a unique, long password for every site and service at which you register.

safari update password

How to upgrade your password quality

Apple has a shortcut that lets you change a weak or compromised password quickly. For high-priority entries, click Change Password on Website ; for other entries, first click the entry and then click Change Password on Website .

This may take you to the change password or account-management page on the site. Apple developed a specification that allows a website operator to put a specially formatted file (or use a script to do the same) at  https://example.com/.well-known/change-password  that redirects to the correct page. If that location exists, clicking the Change Password on Website button takes you to the right spot; if not, it takes you to the site’s home page. (If you run a website of any size,  it’s very easy to set up .)

If you change the password on the website using Safari, you’ll be prompted to update your stored password in the keychain.

You can also modify the password directly in place and then copy and paste it into a website. You can click Edit and then click Create Strong Password , and the password manager generates a new, better one. However, you might need the  old  password to log in–so make a note of the old password first before updating it.

AutoFill feature on Safari saves you time by streamlining your input in various fields. So, you don’t need to manually input your passwords each time you check in to your favorite websites. Interesting, right? In this guide, I’ll show you how to use Touch ID to autofill passwords in Safari on Mac.

How to save or remove username and password in Safari on Mac

How to use touch id to autofill passwords in safari, how to change autofill settings in safari on mac.

Click Safari in menu bar and choose Settings

  • Fill in the following details: Title , Website , Username, and Password . You can also add Notes if you want.

Fill in the details and click add password

To remove the username and password in Safari on Mac, follow these steps:

Click the i icon next to the password

  • Open Safari → Go to the Sign in section of a website. I’m using Facebook for illustrations.

Click the Username section and select the AutoFill box

Voila! You’ve successfully avoided the hassle of typing your username and password.

You can autofill various information depending on the form you are filling. If you don’t want to save your private information or want to remove any saved details, you can change your Mac’s AutoFill settings.

  • Go to Safari Settings.
  • Head to AutoFill .
  • Using information from my contacts:  Enabling lets you fill in the basic information on any website using your Contact card. To update your information on the contact card, click the Edit button .
  • Usernames and passwords:  You may save your usernames and passwords on websites to access them later quickly. Saved passwords will be pre-filled in subsequent fields.
  • Credit Cards: You can AutoFill your Credit Card details while purchasing on Safari. Furthermore, manage your saved credit cards by clicking the Edit button beside it.
  • Other forms: This feature saves the data you enter in online forms and reuse it to fill out the same form fields quickly. To know websites that have saved AutoFill information, click the Edit button . From there, you can view or delete the saved information.

What to do if AutoFill is not showing the saved password on Mac?

Several things can prevent AutoFill from filling in a saved password on a website. Follow the instructions below to ensure your saved passwords are correctly auto-filled.

  • Open Safari Settings .

Select AutoFill and check User name and passwords

  • Go to Safari Settings → Select Passwords → Enter your Mac’s password .
  • Locate the website’s password labeled never saved → Click the info icon .
  • Select Delete Password → Confirm by selecting Delete Password .
  • Afterward, click the Add button to save the website , username, and password .
  • Go to the Apple logo  (  ) → Select System Settings .

Choose Touch ID & Password and toggle on Use Touch ID for autofilling passwords

Is AutoFill different from iCloud Keychain?

AutoFill is a handy feature that quickly fills in your saved usernames and passwords for websites and apps in Safari. It eliminates the need for manually entering login credentials every time.

However, Keychain is a password management tool that is a safe repository for all your login and other private information such as credit card details, Wi-Fi network passwords, etc. It uses robust encryption algorithms and a master password to encrypt sensitive data.

You can disable Touch ID for your Mac’s Safari AutoFill feature. To do so, go to Safari → Settings → AutoFill → uncheck Usernames and passwords .

Unfortunately, you cannot use the AutoFill feature outside the Safari browser on your Mac. However, Chrome offers its own password manager. Besides, you may use password manager apps that support Touch ID to AutoFill passwords across different apps and websites.

Wrapping up…

Using Touch ID on a Mac to automatically fill in passwords in Safari saves you time and increases your online security. So why not give it a shot and see how convenient it is for you. Do you use any third-party password manager on your Mac? Let me know in the comments below!

Safari, Apple's native web browser, is renowned for its sleek interface, robust security features, and seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem. As users navigate the digital landscape, they often rely on Safari to store and manage their passwords for various websites and online services. This convenient feature eliminates the need to remember complex login credentials, offering a hassle-free browsing experience.

In this article, we will delve into the process of accessing and viewing passwords saved on Safari. Whether you've forgotten a specific password or simply want to review your stored credentials, understanding how to access this information can be invaluable.

Launch Safari : Open the Safari browser on your Mac or iOS device. The Safari browser icon , featuring a compass, typically resides in the dock or the Applications folder on a Mac, while it can be found on the home screen of an iOS device.

Navigate to the Menu Bar : At the top of the screen, you will find the Menu Bar, which houses various options for customizing Safari. Click on "Safari" in the Menu Bar to reveal a dropdown menu.

Select "Preferences" : Within the dropdown menu, locate and click on "Preferences." This action will open a new window dedicated to Safari's settings and customization options.

How to access and edit saved passwords on Safari?

Safari browser offers an intuitive feature to fill and save passwords automatically. Convenience and intuitiveness are the factors of a high usage rate. Yet, this built-in password manager does not ensure the same level of password security as dedicated password managers.

Find out why your saved passwords on Safari are vulnerable. How to access, edit, and manage them?

Risks and inconveniences of built-in password managers

Password managers built into browsers (such as Google, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari) have multiple limitations, inconveniences, and risks that you probably have not thought of.

Security vulnerabilities

Although Safari password manager is a relatively secure tool, it still lacks some crucial features for ultimate data safety. Browsers are focused on convenience. That means it will fill in your passwords automatically, as long as your browser is opened.

Working from a co-working space, a cafe, or a beach will require extra attention to your belongings. Everyone can access your passwords on an unattended laptop while ordering a coffee, visiting the bathroom, or chatting with a colleague.

Browser extensions of dedicated password managers log you out frequently for security reasons. This highly increases data safety even on an unattended laptop.

Sharing limitations

Although Safari password manager allows password sharing , this feature has limitations. You can only share passwords with people using Apple.

This restriction makes it difficult to share passwords for work purposes. If a client, colleague, freelancer, or another business partner does not belong to the Apple ecosystem, smooth and secure collaboration is almost impossible.

Besides, Safari password manager does not support many formats of sensitive information: secret notes and credit or address cards. Also, you cannot store passwords from applications that do not have a website.

Reliable password managers allow sharing various data with people regardless of their device and OS type.

No cross-platform usage

Last, browser password managers such as Safari do not support cross-platform and cross-device usage. Therefore, you cannot access passwords saved on Safari from your Windows-based work computer. Access to your sensitive information is always limited to the device and platform you use.

An effective password manager should support all devices and platforms. A user should always have an option to choose what is most convenient for him.

How to access and view saved passwords on Safari ?

You can easily access and view saved passwords on Safari by following these steps:

  • Open Safari browser.
  • Click Preferences in the Safari menu.
  • Select Passwords at the top of the tab.
  • To access and view all saved passwords on Safari, type in your account password or sign in with Touch ID.

Now you can see the list of saved passwords.

If you want to edit any of them, click on a website and press Edit .

If you want to delete a password, click on a website and press Delete Password .

How to export passwords from Safari?

If you want to switch to a dedicated password manager (such as PassCamp ), make sure to export your passwords from Safari first. Here is how to do it:

  • From the menu, select File > Export > Passwords .
  • Press Export Passwords .
  • Name a file and pick a location on your device.
  • Click Save . If needed, enter your account password.

Note : your passwords will be exported to a CSV file. All your passwords will be written in plain text. If anyone accesses it, he can read all passwords.

After an export, make sure to import the CSV file to a dedicated password manager as soon as possible. Delete the CSV document immediately.

How to import passwords to a dedicated password manager?

If you have decided to switch to PassCamp, a highly intuitive password manager that supports cross-platform sync and unlimited sharing, import the CSV file. Here is how to do it:

  • Open PassCamp .
  • Log in to your account.
  • Click on a dropdown arrow next to your name.
  • Press Import / Export Items .
  • In Step 1, select Other . Press Import .
  • Choose a CSV file, review it, and upload it.

All your saved passwords on Safari are now uploaded to PassCamp. Now you can experience all benefits of a dedicated, limitless password manager.

At WWDC 2024 , Apple revealed a new Passwords app that expands on its existing iCloud Keychain features and syncs your passwords across more devices. Now, with Passwords , Apple is releasing a standalone app to manage passwords and passkeys on more devices, including Apple’s Vision Pro headset, as well as Macs, iPhones, and iPads.

iOS 18 Beta & Troubleshooting

A developer beta of iOS 18 is available now through the Apple Developer Program at developer.apple.com . However, as it’s a beta version, it likely has some bugs, and it does not include Apple Intelligence. If you choose to download the beta, you may run into problems where it may fail to download, prepare, or install. In those cases, you can potentially solve the issue by:

  • Simply waiting a while: Lots of people may be trying to download the beta and Apple’s servers may be a bit overwhelmed.
  • Checking your internet connection: The update won’t be super small, so a stable internet connection is required.
  • Restarting your phone: It sounds simple, but turning your device off and on again can resolve many technical issues.
  • Freeing up storage space: You won’t be able to start downloading the iOS 18 update if you don’t have enough free storage space. Even with sufficient space, the update process may not always go smoothly. You can free up storage space manually or you can use Cleaner One for iOS to do it automatically.

Cleaner One for iOS: Free Up Space on Your iPhone

With Cleaner One for iOS , you can free up storage space on your iPhone so it’s ready for iOS 18! Here are some of its features:

  • Photo Cleaner: Detects and removes duplicate or similar images, freeing up valuable storage space.

  • Bulk Photo Remover: Allows for mass deletion of photos by date or enables the removal of all photos in a single tap.

safari prompt to help change passwords based on data leak

I have Safari Version 14.0.3 (16610.4.3.1.4) and Mac OS Big Sur 11.2.2. Apple pushed an update last night- possibly an OS update. After that, when I opened Safari , a page displayed saying that my login to - an IP address (not a friendly url but that may not matter) has been compromised due to recent data leaks. Safari asked if I wanted Safari to fix that for me. I accepted and then stopped that process.

My question- which I will also pose to Apple Support- is : How do I know that this isn't a scammer pretending to be Apple and "helping" me to reset my passwords?

I'm posting this here for others in case they get the same issue.

Oh My! I guess I didn't realize that a quick witted man would respond so quickly to my silly question. Ahh, yes it would take tens of thousands of web pages to pop up a message? Who knew.

On another note, I did confirm that this is not a scam. It is Big Sur 11.0.1. Despite quick Kirk, I will still be careful when a computer program suggests, uninvited, that it can help me change my passwords.

Your Apple MacBook is getting a free upgrade - here are the best MacOS 15 features

kyle-closeup-headshot-edited2

Apple previewed MacOS 15 Sequoia this week at WWDC , showing off an overhaul of the operating system for MacBooks and iMacs that centers around AI integration. This year's WWDC was undoubtedly all about AI . It's unsurprising since Apple took its time to discuss its plans for AI integration across its products. Now that it's here, we have a better picture of its approach, which looks good.

Also: How to install MacOS 15 Sequoia developer beta to test the latest Mac features

New AI features are coming to Siri, Safari, and a new Continuity app that streamlines the use of your iPhone and Mac. But it's not all AI. There are also quite a bit of quality-of-life design improvements and security updates launching with MacOS 15.

Following this week's preview, beta testing of MacOS 15 starts immediately and will continue over the next few months, with a launch to the general public in the fall of 2024. That'll be here sooner than you think, so let's take a look at the biggest features just announced. 

1. Apple Intelligence

The past few months have been jam-packed with flashy announcements from OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft, but Apple's had the final word, reclaiming the acronym with the clever naming of its new Apple Intelligence . So what is it? It refers to the overarching AI ecosystem that will be present in MacOS 15, as well as the iPhone and iPad; the engine powering all the new AI functionality across all its apps.

The Apple Intelligence ecosystem is fueled by a partnership with OpenAI , allowing Apple to leverage the massive LLM already cultivated by OpenAI's huge success with ChatGPT, along with the company's goals of taking on Google by entering the search market.

Apple's approach to AI is markedly different from that of its competitors, however. Instead of positioning the new AI features as integral aspects of their products, Apple allows users to opt in, making immediate adoption a choice. The AI features are also clearly defined as being in beta, underscoring their nature as works-in-progress. 

This lets Apple disengage from the chaotic rat race to a degree, positioning itself as the careful, more ethical actor when it comes to AI, particularly in light of  recent debilitating security concerns  from Microsoft's Recall feature, which is delaying the release of a host of its new Copilot+ PCs .

2. Continuity

The new Continuity app links your Mac to your iPhone in a fully comprehensive way, essentially allowing you to remote into your iPhone directly through your laptop. The demo at WWDC showed iPhone mirroring to pull up the iPhone's home screen, interacting with multiple apps using the laptop's trackpad and keyboard. 

Also: iOS 18's new Game Mode makes your iPhone faster and more performant

The app also streamlines your devices by bringing your iPhone's notifications straight to the Mac, allowing you to pull up the corresponding app onto the laptop. If you're worried about privacy while using your phone on your laptop, your phone's screen actually remains locked and turned off, even while you're using the phone remotely. Alternatively, the new standby mode on the iPhone displays a host of at-a-glance (but un-interactable) data like a clock and calendar while you're using the Continuity app on the Mac. 

3. Siri 2.0

Apple has played the long game when it comes to its virtual assistant, Siri. As one of the very first to be adopted by the public, Siri has been around for a very long time -- since 2011 -- although it's taken a back seat to flashier AI assistants the past few years. Apple's technology in this area offers a strong foundation to expand upon, however, and the new and improved Siri is full of new AI features.

During the WWDC keynote, Apple showed off Siri's new look as an ever-present AI assistant integrated into every thread of the UI, not a standalone app. Siri will have access to ChatGPT's LLM, allowing the AI to be functionally ready to communicate in a more natural context, following up with previous conversations and messages instead of providing full context in every single prompt. 

The new Siri also comes with on-screen awareness, allowing the AI to respond to what you're looking at on the screen without requiring the user to provide specific context with each prompt. This also allows Siri to take in-app actions in a way that wasn't possible before. In MacOS Sequoia, Siri's integration with OpenAI's LLM propels the virtual assistant to the top players in the field alongside ChatGPT-4o and Google's Gemini . 

4. AI-fueled productivity apps

Apple Intelligence has been integrated across all of the big productivity apps in MacOS 15. Here's a breakdown of some of the most noteworthy features.

  • Keynote, Numbers, and Pages: The core suite of Apple's productivity apps are seeing a host of AI-infused upgrades on both the creativity end and performance. Keynote will allow users to tap AI to auto-generate slides, and Pages will come with new text-generation prompts fueled by AI.   
  • Mail:  Apple Intelligence will play a more active role in finding specific emails, responding, deleting, and organizing your inbox, from summarizing emails to suggesting replies and rewrites. One of the more useful features includes the summary feature, which taps the AI to pull out summaries of an email in the inbox view, as opposed to just showing the first few lines of an email, which often aren't useful for summarizing what an email is about. 
  • Calendar: Besides integration with the Reminders app, the new Calendar app will support AI.
  • Photos: AI-based photo editing features in the Photos app allow users to make touch-ups, remove backgrounds, and do editing instantaneously. Additionally, searching for specific photos and videos using natural language will bring up images of specific people or events. 
  • Notes: Voice functionality is coming to the Notes app, with the ability to add voice memos directly embedded into your notes.

5. New and improved Safari

Safari will see a host of improvements powered by AI functionality, including an "Intelligent Search" option that harnesses on-device AI to summarize search results in the browser in Mac OS Sequoia. Following along with Apple's emphasis on security, Safari updates include intelligent tracking prevention that restricts what websites can track, while also emphasizing the efficiency and speed of the Safari app.

Apple demoed Safari's machine learning capability to automatically detect relevant information on a webpage, including things like quick links, directions, and quick summaries with logistical information like phone numbers and addresses. 

6. Standalone Passwords app

Aligning with Apple's positioning of its AI features as secure and trustworthy, it's releasing an all-new and updated Passwords app in MacOS 15 that consolidates and streamlines your password across your Apple devices.

This standalone app is an extension of the existing iCloud Keychain, and seeks to simplify password storage by employing Face ID and Touch ID alongside character-string passwords. Much of it is designed to work automatically and seamlessly in an effort to solve what is a huge UX headache that everyone has experienced at one point or another.

Apple wants to create a "unified gaming platform" across the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with high resolution and improved ray tracing. Apple emphasized the sheer number of new titles available on the Apple silicon chips, and they look better than ever. Frostpunk 2, Control, and UbiSoft include ray tracing and Assasin's Creed, coming to Apple devices later this year.

PRESS RELEASE

The release introduces all-new customization options, the biggest-ever redesign of Photos, powerful updates for staying connected, and Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system

CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA  Apple today previewed iOS 18 , a major release that features more customization options, the biggest redesign ever of the Photos app, new ways for users to manage their inbox in Mail, Messages over satellite, and so much more. Users will be able to arrange apps and widgets in any open space on the Home Screen, customize the buttons at the bottom of the Lock Screen, and quickly access more controls in Control Center. Photo libraries are automatically organized in a new single view in Photos, and helpful new collections keep favorites easily accessible. Mail simplifies the inbox by sorting email into categories using on-device intelligence, and all-new text effects come to iMessage. Powered by the same groundbreaking technology as existing iPhone satellite capabilities, users can now communicate over satellite in the Messages app when a cellular or Wi-Fi connection isn’t available. 1

iOS 18 also introduces Apple Intelligence , the personal intelligence system for iPhone, iPad, and Mac that combines the power of generative models with personal context to deliver intelligence that’s incredibly useful and relevant. 2 Built with privacy from the ground up, Apple Intelligence is deeply integrated into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. It harnesses the power of Apple silicon to understand and create language and images, take action across apps, and draw from personal context, to simplify and accelerate everyday tasks.

“We are thrilled to introduce iOS 18. It is a huge release with incredible features, including new levels of customization and capability, a redesigned Photos app, and powerful ways to stay connected with Messages. There are so many benefits for everyone,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “This release also marks the beginning of a tremendously exciting new era of personal intelligence with Apple Intelligence delivering intuitive, powerful, and instantly useful experiences that will transform the iPhone experience, all with privacy at the core. We can’t wait for users to experience it.”

iPhone users have new ways to customize the Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center. Users can now arrange apps and widgets in any open space on the Home Screen, including placing them right above the dock for easy access or perfectly framing a wallpaper. App icons and widgets can take on a new look with a dark or tinted effect, and users can make them appear larger to create the experience that is perfect for them.

Control Center has been redesigned to provide easier access to many of the things users do every day, and it gets new levels of customization and flexibility. The redesign delivers quick access to new groups of a user’s most-utilized controls, such as media playback, Home controls, and connectivity, as well as the ability to easily swipe between each. Users can now add controls from supported third-party apps into Control Center to quickly unlock a vehicle or jump right into capturing content for social media — all from one place. The new controls gallery displays the full set of available options, and users can customize how the controls are laid out, including adjusting them to the ideal size and creating entirely new groups.

For the first time, users can now switch the controls at the bottom of the Lock Screen, including choosing from options available in the controls gallery or removing them entirely. With the Action button available on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, users can quickly invoke controls available in the gallery.

Photos receives its biggest-ever redesign to help users easily find and relive special moments. A simplified, single view displays a familiar grid, and new collections help users browse by themes without having to organize content into albums. Plus, collections can be pinned to keep favorites easily accessible. A new carousel view presents highlights that update each day and feature favorite people, pets, places, and more. Autoplaying content throughout the app brings libraries to life, so past moments can be enjoyed while browsing. Because each user’s photo library is unique, the app is customizable, so users can organize collections, pin collections to access frequently, and include what’s most important to them in the carousel view.

iMessage receives all-new text effects that bring conversations to life by amplifying any letter, word, phrase, or emoji with dynamic, animated appearances. Users can better express tone by adding formatting like bold, underline, italics, and strikethrough. Tapbacks expand to include any emoji or sticker, and now users can compose a message and schedule to send it at a later time.

When messaging contacts who do not have an Apple device, the Messages app now supports RCS for richer media and more reliable group messaging compared to SMS and MMS.

iOS 18 introduces Messages via satellite for the times when cellular and Wi-Fi connections aren’t available. Powered by the same groundbreaking technology as existing iPhone satellite capabilities, Messages via satellite automatically prompts users to connect to their nearest satellite right from the Messages app to send and receive texts, emoji, and Tapbacks over iMessage and SMS. 3 With Dynamic Island, users always know when they are connected to a satellite. Because iMessage was built to protect user privacy, iMessages sent via satellite are end-to-end encrypted.

Later this year, Mail will introduce new ways for users to manage their inbox and stay up to date. On-device categorization organizes and sorts incoming email into Primary for personal and time-sensitive emails, Transactions for confirmations and receipts, Updates for news and social notifications, and Promotions for marketing emails and coupons. Mail also features a new digest view that pulls together all of the relevant emails from a business, allowing users to quickly scan for what’s important in the moment.

Safari, the world’s fastest browser, 4 now offers an even easier way to discover information on the web with Highlights and a redesigned Reader experience. Using machine learning, Safari can surface key information about a webpage. For example, users can review a summary to get the gist of an article; quickly see the location of a restaurant, hotel, or landmark; or listen to an artist’s track right from an article about the song or album. Reader has been redesigned to offer even more ways to enjoy articles without distraction, with a summary and table of contents included for longer articles.

Building on the foundation of Keychain, which was first introduced more than 25 years ago, the new Passwords app makes it easy for users to access their passwords, passkeys, Wi-Fi passwords, and verification codes. The app also includes alerts for users regarding common weaknesses, such as passwords that are easily guessed or used multiple times and those that appear in known data leaks.

iOS 18 gives users even more control with tools to manage who can see their apps, how contacts are shared, and how their iPhone connects to accessories.

Locked and hidden apps offer users peace of mind that information they want to keep private, such as app notifications and content, will not inadvertently be seen by others. Users can now lock an app; and for additional privacy, they can hide an app, moving it to a locked, hidden apps folder. When an app is locked or hidden, content like messages or emails inside the app are hidden from search, notifications, and other places across the system.

iOS 18 puts users in control by letting them choose to share only specific contacts with an app. In addition, developers now have a way to seamlessly connect third-party accessories with iPhone without letting an app see all the other devices on a user’s network, keeping a user’s devices private and making pairing seamless.

Deeply integrated into iOS 18 and built with privacy from the ground up, Apple Intelligence unlocks new ways for users to enhance their writing and communicate more effectively. With brand-new systemwide Writing Tools built into iOS 18, users can rewrite, proofread, and summarize text nearly everywhere they write, including Mail, Notes, Pages, and third-party apps.

New image capabilities make communication and self-expression even more fun. With Image Playground, users can create playful images in seconds, choosing from three styles: Animation, Illustration, or Sketch. Image Playground is easy to use, built right into apps like Messages, and also available in a dedicated app.

Memories in Photos lets users create the stories they want to see just by typing a description. Apple Intelligence will pick out the best photos and videos based on the description, craft a storyline with chapters based on themes identified from the photos, and arrange them into a movie with its own narrative arc. In addition, a new Clean Up tool can identify and remove distracting objects in the background of a photo — without accidentally altering the subject.

With the power of Apple Intelligence, Siri takes a major step forward, becoming even more natural, contextually relevant, and personal. Users can type to Siri, and switch between text and voice to communicate with Siri in whatever way feels right for the moment.

With Private Cloud Compute, Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing, and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers. When requests are routed to Private Cloud Compute, data is not stored or made accessible to Apple and is only used to fulfill the user’s requests, and independent experts can verify this privacy.

Additionally, access to ChatGPT is integrated into Siri and systemwide Writing Tools across Apple’s platforms, allowing users to access its expertise — as well as its image- and document-understanding capabilities — without needing to jump between tools.

Additional features in iOS 18 include:
