What is AutoFill?

With the release of iOS 12, Apple introduced an AutoFill framework that makes it even easier to fill passwords and codes in Safari and other apps. Once you save information like your passwords, address, and payment cards to the AutoFill service, you can fill out forms with a single tap. Apple's iCloud keychain is also compatible with password managers like LastPass and other apps. The passwords you save to LastPass, for example, can also be filled by the AutoFill service.
