Protect your credentials

Not having to remember your username and password when logging into apps is one less thing to worry about in your busy life. However, saving all your credentials in one place can also be a bad idea. Cybercriminals would have a field day if they managed to gain access, among other possible scenarios.

Luckily, Apple gives you the option to save or unsave them. Erasing your saved passwords from your devices not only protects your information, but also allows you to exercise your memory a little more when you recall them, which is not a bad thing.
