Will clearing history and web data remove my web passwords?

If I decide to clear the history and website data... Would it delete my password out of these apps, Facebook, messenger, Snapchat etc.. and also how do u turn the auto delete off on an iPad?

Thank You, Paula

Hello,

Yes, it would clear your passwords. If you have forgotten what they are, you might check Apple's Keychain (Apple's password manager):

Get help with iCloud Keychain

In regard to "turn the auto delete off on an iPad", I don't know what that is. What app are you using?

Good luck.
