How to fill in personal information in Safari on iPad

With your personal information saved on iPad, you can automatically fill in contact information, user names, and passwords.

Saving your details on your iPad speeds up filling in online forms, and you can even use AutoFill to enter another person’s information from your contact list, like a friend’s address when you ship a gift. You set up AutoFill first, and you can fill in your passwords the same way.

Here’s how to fill in personal information in Safari on iPad.

You can also automatically fill in payment information.

Set up AutoFill

You can save your personal information on your iPad to speed up filling in online forms.

Open the Settings app on your iPad.
Tap Apps, then tap Safari.
Tap AutoFill, then turn on Use Contact Info.
Tap My Info and then choose your contact card.

The contact information from your card is entered when you tap AutoFill on webpages in Safari.

Fill in your contact information automatically

You can quickly add your personal information to online forms using AutoFill.

Go to the Safari app on your iPad.
In a form on a website that supports AutoFill, tap a blank field.
Tap AutoFill Contact above the keyboard, then select a contact.
Tap any field to make changes.

Note: AutoFill can enter another person’s information from your contact list, too. If you’re purchasing a gift and shipping it to a friend, for example, you can use it to enter their address. To do that, tap AutoFill Contact, tap Other Contact, then choose their contact card.

Fill in your passwords automatically

When you sign up for services on websites and in apps, iPad can create and save strong passwords for many of your accounts. To learn how, see our guide, Automatically fill in strong passwords.

Important: Never enter a password on sites with a “Not Secure” warning.

Turn off AutoFill

If you share a device with others, for example, you might not want your contact information readily available. In that case, you can turn off AutoFill for passwords and your contact information.

Turn off AutoFill for your contact information: Go to Settings > Apps > Safari > AutoFill, then turn off Use Contact Info.
Turn off AutoFill for passwords: Go to Settings > General > AutoFill & Passwords, then turn off AutoFill Passwords and Passkeys.
