ngerprint, touch the Home button to nd out which ngerprint it is.

iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website user names and passwords, credit card information,
and Wi-Fi network information up to date. iCloud Keychain works on all your approved devices
(iOS 7 or later) and Mac computers (OS X Mavericks or later).
iCloud Keychain works with Safari Password Generator and AutoFill. When you’re setting up a
new account, Safari Password Generator suggests unique, hard-to-guess passwords. You can
use AutoFill to have iPad enter your user name and password info, making login easy. See Fill in
forms on page 61.
Note: Some websites do not support AutoFill.
iCloud Keychain is secured with 256-bit AES encryption during storage and transmission, and
cannot be read by Apple.
Set up iCloud Keychain. Go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain. Turn on iCloud Keychain, then
follow the onscreen instructions. If you’ve set up iCloud Keychain on other devices, you need to
approve use of iCloud Keychain from one of those devices, or use your iCloud Security Code.
Important: Your iCloud Security Code cannot be retrieved by Apple. If you forget your security
code, you’ll have to start over and set up your iCloud Keychain again.
