iOS devices do not have a feature called “Hide My Password.” Instead, Apple offers two different but related privacy and security options: Hide My Email and Save Passwords.


Hide My Email is part of Apple’s iCloud+ subscription service and lets you create unique, random email addresses that forward messages to your real email account. This keeps your personal email address private while still allowing you to receive correspondence.


Save Passwords works through iCloud Keychain and securely stores your login credentials for websites and apps. It can autofill usernames and passwords, sync them across your Apple devices, and even suggest strong, unique passwords when you sign up for new accounts.


While these features help protect your identity and credentials, none of them directly hide an existing password from view in the same way a hypothetical “Hide My Password” feature would. Instead, they focus on preventing you from having to share or expose your real information in the first place.
