Apple Passwords app rumored to launch at WWDC

Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is just three days away and Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman is back with another rumor ahead of the big event. According to the latest report, Apple will introduce a new Passwords app that will be a one-stop shop for managing passwords across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS and Windows devices. This will be a separate app/platform from the current iCloud Keychain used on Apple devices and will be a direct competitor to password managing services like LastPass and 1Password.

The new Bloomberg report suggests that Apple Passwords will offer different categories for accounts, passkeys, and Wi-Fi networks. It will also sync across devices and have the ability to autofill and generate new passwords when signing up for platforms. Apple Passwords is also rumored to offer authentication codes like Google Authenticator and the ability to import passwords from other password-managing platforms.
