ICLOUD keys ligament how to see. Using iCloud in practice

Key bunch in iOS. What you need to know!

Today I decided to make a sightseeing article about the bunch of keys, since the last time our site recalled it in the distant year 2013. It was at that moment that she appeared in iOS 7. But now almost 4 years have passed and we are waiting for iOS 11, so it’s time to make relevant instructions for connecting keys with questions and answers.

ICLOUD keys ligament is a functionality that allows you to store secret data (logins, passwords, credit cards, etc.P.) in the system and in the cloud.

Data in conjunction of keys are encrypted by a powerful 256-bit AES encryption. Thanks to the use of iCloud technology, data are maintained in current condition on different devices.

The bunch of keys helps not only to store data, but also to enter this data for the user.

And now a simple example that shows the work of the keys of the keys not even very technically savvy users.

The user enters some site (for example, “Odnoklassniki”) in Safari on iPhone. He has a login and password there. He introduces them manually. The system proposes to save data in conjunction of keys. If the user agrees, then the data falls into a special file. The user decides to go to Odnoklassniki on iPad. He opens the site in Safari. The iOS system takes data from the very special file and fills the fields of the login and password. The user can only press the entrance button. Thus, the user does not need to not only enter the password, but also remember it. A bunch of keys for him does it.

How to set up a bunch of keys?

After you update iOS to the current version, the special assistant will ask you to configure the bunch of keys. Setting is also possible if you just bought a new device and try to activate it under your (possibly new) account.

Settings-new name (at the top).ICLOUD CLOSS.

Turn on the slider “ICLUD keys”. Follow the instructions of the system. If this is your first device under this Apple ID account, then the bunch of keys will simply turn on. If the device is not the first, then you need to confirm the inclusion.

As a rule, you need to enter the ICLUD security code. After that, you need to enter a special code that comes to another device that is tied to the Apple ID (if it is iPhone, then SMS comes to the account tied to the account).

At the same time, a special message appears on another device, which asks to enter a password from Apple ID.

Next, you can see the settings-Safari-completion.

Contact data and my data. these two points allow you to specify the contact from the settings that will be used to fill out various forms. That is, you can bring yourself to the contacts, write an e-mail, phone and other data there. In the future, if some site will request an e-mail, then auto-performance will do it for you.

Names and passwords. it is not clear how it works, but judging by the description, it allows you to view and remove passwords in the settings “Accounts and passwords” (more on that below). Focus is that including and off, I did not notice the difference in functionality.

Credit cards. include the preservation of driven cards on sites. At the same time, the system will still ask to save the card in the keys or not.

Saved credit cards (you can go only by password, or through Touch ID). here you can view or add cards that are used when paying for purchases on the Internet.

A big plus is the presence of a search, which will simplify the presence of the desired site with a large number of them. However, sometimes the names of sites are not displayed, which can confuse.
