This article explains how to set up and use Keeper Password Manager on iPhone or iPad, including AutoFill, passwords, passkeys, 2FA codes, shared records, and folders.
1. Install Keeper and Sign In
Download Keeper Password Manager from the Apple App Store.
- Install and open Keeper.
- Sign in with your Keeper account.
- If prompted, complete the verification of your device or account.
2. Set Up Biometric Unlock
You can unlock Keeper on supported devices using Face ID or Touch ID.
To do this, open Keeper’s Settings and enable the available biometric sign-in option.
3. Enable Keeper AutoFill
With Keeper AutoFill, iOS can suggest usernames, passwords, and passkeys from Keeper within apps and websites.
- Open Settings on your iPhone.
- Go to General > AutoFill Passwords.
- Enable AutoFill.
- Select Keeper as the provider for passwords and passkeys.
- Optionally, disable other password managers to avoid duplicate suggestions.
4. Add a New Record
A record typically contains login details for a website or application.
- Open your Keeper Vault.
- Tap Create or the + symbol.
- Choose the desired record type, such as Login.
- Give the record a clear name.
- Enter your username.
- Enter your password or let Keeper generate a strong password.
- Add the website address if applicable.
- Add notes, custom fields, files, or photos if needed.
- Save the record.
5. Use AutoFill
When Keeper is set as the AutoFill provider:
- Open the app or website where you want to sign in.
- Tap the username or password field.
- Choose the Keeper suggestion above the keyboard or tap Passwords.
- Unlock Keeper with Face ID, Touch ID, or your Keeper verification.
- Select the correct record.
- iOS fills in the available login details.
Some websites use multiple separate login screens. In that case, you may need to select AutoFill again for the next field.
6. Use Passkeys
Keeper can also save and use passkeys on supported iPhones and iPads.
Make sure Keeper is selected in iOS as the provider for passwords and passkeys.
When a website or app asks to create a new passkey, Keeper can save it in your Vault. At the next login, the saved passkey can be used again.
7. Store 2FA Codes in Keeper
Keeper can also store and generate temporary 2FA codes (TOTP).
- Open the Keeper record for which you want to add 2FA.
- Choose Edit.
- Select Add Two-Factor Code.
- Scan the QR code from the relevant website or app, or enter the secret key manually.
- Save the record.
Keeper then automatically generates the current 2FA code. When supported by a website or app, Keeper can also suggest or fill in this code automatically during sign-in.
8. Organise Records in Folders
Use folders to keep your Keeper Vault organised.
- Tap the + symbol.
- Choose Folder.
- Give the folder a clear name.
- Save the folder.
You can then place existing or new records into this folder.
9. Share Records
Keeper allows you to share records directly with other Keeper users.
- Open the record you want to share.
- Choose Share.
- Select Share with User.
- Enter the email address of the Keeper user.
- Set the desired permissions.
Depending on permissions and your organisation’s policy, read, modify, and share rights may be available.
10. Use Shared Folders
When multiple records need to be shared with the same group of people, you can use a Shared Folder.
Add the desired users and define, according to your organisation’s policy, what rights they have on the shared folder and its records.
11. Import Passwords
Keeper supports importing existing passwords, but for more extensive imports it is recommended to use the Keeper Web Vault or Keeper Desktop.
There you can import data from:
- browser passwords;
- other password managers;
- CSV files.
12. Securely Store Files and Photos
Keeper supports adding files and photos to records. You can open an existing record and use the option to add files or photos.
Files are stored encrypted in Keeper. Availability and storage capacity may depend on your Keeper subscription and organisation policy.
Keeper AutoFill Not Working?
Check the following:
- whether Keeper is selected in iOS as the provider for passwords and passkeys;
- whether AutoFill is enabled;
- whether the Keeper app and iOS are up to date;
- whether the correct website address is in the Keeper record;
- whether another password manager is not showing suggestions simultaneously.
If Keeper does not appear immediately, first tap the username or password field and choose Passwords.
Some apps and websites use non-standard login forms, making AutoFill not always possible. In that case, you can manually copy the data from Keeper.
