I have an annoying problem with my ancient iPad.

Every time I turn it off, and it's really off, every website that I have a password for requires that I log back in, every time.

I have to look them up and sometimes the website tells me that this is an old password, and it won't work.

Do the newer iPads keep you logged in, even after you've turned it off?

My iPhone does not do this.

individual sites or not, and if for certain browsers or not.

Example: when we login to DU , i advise keeping the box checked ON before entering passwords.

Another example: some special browsers will log you out automatically.

Third example: financial websites may have an automatic logout.

Are you using any security apps? Are you up to date on updates?

You might want to consider letting the iPad /Apple manage your passwords for you.
