Some Of Us Prefer To Pick Our Own Passwords.
Like to pick your own password? Do you find it annoying when Safari insists on suggesting a strong password? Sometimes the popup appears even when you log in to a website you already have an account on. I find it annoying, as I like to pick my own passwords. Not to mention the passkey prompt, which could be something you don’t even want to use. Being able to disable both is totally possible. The method has changed in iOS, making many tutorials obsolete, so hopefully the method outlined here will work for you. Just follow the steps below, and you’re done.
