With iOS 17, Apple has introduced a practical innovation that makes sharing contacts and passwords much easier. From now on, you can paste this information directly into any text field you find on your device. In this article, you will learn more about this useful feature and how you can use it to save time and effort.

Sharing contacts and passwords was often cumbersome and required multiple steps. However, with iOS 17, Apple has responded and created an intuitive solution. By allowing you to paste contacts and passwords directly into text fields, using your iPhone or iPad becomes even easier and more efficient. The new feature in iOS 17 allows you to quickly and easily paste contacts and passwords into any text field. If you tap and hold in a text field, a context menu appears with the "Paste" option. Another menu opens, offering you the choice between "Contacts" and "Passwords."

Convenient and secure – iOS 17 allows easy insertion of contacts and passwords

Selecting "Contacts" will take you directly to your contact list. You can then select the desired contact, and their information will be automatically inserted into the text field. This is especially useful if, for example, you are composing an email and want to insert a person's contact information. To insert passwords, you must first authenticate to access your password keychain. Once you are successfully authenticated, you can select the desired password, and it will be securely inserted into the text field. This saves time and prevents typos when manually entering passwords.

Conclusion

With iOS 17, Apple has introduced an innovative feature that makes sharing contacts and passwords easier. By pasting them directly into text fields, you can save time and ensure that the information is transferred correctly. iOS 17 is currently in beta for members of the Apple Developer Program and is expected to be available to all users in the fall. Use this handy feature to use your device more efficiently and make sharing contacts and passwords easier. Are you looking for new accessories?
