A very effective Password Manager is already built-in to your Apple devices - Apple Keychain.


Information about setup and use of Keychain can be found here:

Beyond Keychain, there are many third-party Password Managers. If you use Firefox or Google Chrome browser Apps, basic Password Manager functions are built-in - and are independent of Apple Keychain.


There are other well known full-feature Password Managers - such as 1Password, LastPass and Dashlane - all of which are subscription based and can be expensive.


As for recommendations, I strongly suggest that you start with Apple Keychain. It’s built-in (i.e., “native”), costs nothing to use - and synchronises across all your Apple devices. If you use a Widows 10/11 PC, your keychain can also be accessed from the PC. If not sufficient for you needs, perhaps then consider a commercial alternative.
