This question was asked multiple times with no appropriate answer & the threads are closed to replies. So, I'm asking again so I can provide the simple answer.


How do I stop Safari from saving my SSN?

ANSWER: Go to Settings>Passwords & Accounts>Website & App Passwords>

then in the Search bar at the top of the screen just start typing in your SSN & any websites that saved your SSN will be displayed appearing as the saved User Name.

Tap Edit on top Right of the screen & edit accordingly. You can delete the Website which will remove the saved entry entirely.
