Passwords and Keychain missing after iOS 18 update on iPhone 14 Pro

Can't find Password and Keychain in Settings on my iPhone 14 Pro following the iOS 18 update. User names and passwords are not readily available. However, a list of passwords is listed in iCloud, but I can't access them or utilize autofill in my third-party accounts.

With the iOS 18 update, the iCloud Keychain has been replaced with the new Passwords app, which now stores your passwords. It’s usually placed on the last page of your apps upon update. The icon should look like a set of keys below.

Thank you all for your comments. Unfortunately, as mentioned, there is sometimes a glitch when downloading the 18 2.1 update. This was my situation, and Apple Support advised me to download the Password app from the Apple Store. This situation may have occurred with other members. In my case, it was the Password app, but there could be other apps that were mistakenly not included in the update. I encourage everyone to thoroughly review their updates to ensure all apps are present.

You are very welcome. I am glad that your issue was resolved. To my recollection, the Passwords App is the only new app introduced in iOS 18. Happy new year.
