‘Passwords App’ not changing to new password?

They probably made the change because the previous method was very confusing to many people. It's important to maintain the distinction between "I don't like this" and "This is objectively bad." Your preferences are just that, preferences. What I can tell you after spending a lot of time reading and answering questions here is that having the passwords in Settings and calling it in other places "Keychain" was confusing to people.

Personally, I haven't noticed any difference. Things still autopopulate.

It also makes me wonder if Apples “Security and Privacy” are nothing but a catch phrase when in fact it’s just another company stealing peoples private information. I really don’t trust any of these companies anymore.

This seems to be a non sequitur. How does changing the method of accessing passwords on your phone (same passwords, same phone, same Apple Account) mean that Apple is "stealing peoples private information?" From a security perspective, nothing has changed.

Just when you think Apple is making a step forward they take two steps backward. Keychain worked really well at updating passwords then some bright programmer comes along and screws it all up.

Wow, don’t people think anymore? The new Passwords app requires ONE TAP to open it. The old way in Settings required:

1 tap to open Settings

moves to scroll to Passwords

Another tap to open Passwords

Thus, having passwords in an app is much more convenient than the old way. The app is also better organized, and gives you the option of using ANY password app you choose (Apple is the only way to manage passwords, there are a least a dozen password management apps). You choose your preferred password app in Settings/Apps/Default Apps. Thus, this change also is designed to meet the EU requirement that manufacturers give equal access to 3rd party apps that might compete with Apple’s.

That was not the point of this thread. The point is that the new way is not recording password changes in real time and/or not recording half the time regardless if you choose "Remember Password" or not. Your point of extra steps to go into the settings means nothing when the application is forcing you to go in and edit it manually half the time.
