iPhone passwords restore

[Shiv]

Hi, the Mrs messed up her iPhone passwords this morning….she said the iPhone asked her “do you want to sync your passwords” and she pressed “no” and all the saved passwords for websites etc have all gone! Is there a way she can recover or reinstall these from a previous backup?

If she ran an encrypted backup the password will be included in the backup.

If she ran an encrypted backup the password will be included in the backup.

Is there way to check if the last back up was an encrypted one?

I think it will ask for the encrpted password when you try flash it back.

Would she need to erase all data and then install the last back up and then it would ask if she wants to sync the encrypted passwords?

Did she sign in to her phone with another Apple ID for icloud?

If sounds like. you’re referring to passwords missing from keychain.

I think she signed out of her Apple ID iCloud and then signed back into to it…that’s where she pressed “no” when asked “do you want to sync passwords” all here auto fill passwords have gone (see pic)

Check the most recent iCloud backup on here phone, and do a restore like you did for your phone the other day.
