At NordPass, we aim to continuously provide a smooth experience whenever you need to create and add new credentials. Following the latest iOS update, we’ve finally been able to implement a quick and easy autosave option for NordPass users with iPhone or iPad devices. We’re very excited to finally be bringing this functionality forward and taking a massive step in improving mobile user experience.
Key benefits of autosave on iOS
Although creating and storing new passwords using NordPass has been an integral functionality of our product, implementing it on iOS devices was a significant move forward in the password management market. With the launch of iOS 26.2, Apple introduced the credential provider API, and our long-set goal finally became reality. NordPass can now automatically detect and save new passwords on iOS devices, storing them in your vault with a single confirmation tap.
Autosave is supported on both iOS native apps and websites, allowing you to store new login details quickly and easily. To start using this functionality, all you need to do is enable autofill via NordPass on your device.
Keep in mind that if you use a password generator for new credentials, the generation will be handled by Apple. However, you can always customize your credentials later using NordPass’ Password Generator. All generated passwords stored via autosave will also be listed in NordPass’ Password Generator history.
With Apple’s latest API, we can finally make saving and updating passwords on iOS feel effortless. It’s wonderful to see Apple take big steps forward to support third-party password managers, and we cannot wait for what will come next.

How autosave on iOS with NordPass works
To automatically save new login details on iOS using NordPass, you need to:
Open the website or launch the app you want to sign up for or log in to.
Enter your login credentials and confirm.
You will see a NordPass pop-up on the screen asking you if you want to save new credentials. Select “Save.”
That’s it! You can now access your newly saved password in your NordPass vault and autofill it whenever you need to log in.
If you select “Not now,” you will be prompted to save the credentials next time you log in, so you don’t need to worry about accidentally losing your login details for good.
We recommend staying logged in to the NordPass app for a smooth autosave process. However, NordPass will still detect new login credentials and prompt you to save them even if you’re logged out. In that case, you will need to enter your Master Password to save the new credentials in your vault.
The bottom line
Thanks to the recent iOS changes, we’re able to help our users manage their passwords more smoothly — and we’re proud to be one of the first password managers to implement it. We continuously dedicate ourselves to improving the user experience on iOS and other platforms, and we hope to bring you many more exciting security improvements this year.
