implies automatically enters your passwords (and other info) for websites
and supported apps.

Open Settings, swipe down and tap Passwords & Accounts
2.
Tap AutoFill Passwords, then tap the toggle next to AutoFill Passwords
3.
You’ll also want to have iCloud Keychain turned on if you don’t already
(Settings → your name → iCloud → Keychain)
4.
Now you’ll be able to save and AutoFill passwords on the web and in apps,
look for the prompt at the bottom of your iPhone when tapping on a password
field
Keep in mind if you’re turning on AutoFill/iCloud Keychain for the first
time, you’ll need to save your passwords as you type them in during daily
use. Then upon using them the next time, you’ll be able to use AutoFill for
the saved credentials.

As shown in the far right screenshot above, you can also use third-party
password managers like 1Password with AutoFill or opt to use both iCloud
Keychain and a third-party app.
