Passwords not transferring to new iPhone

Recently got the new iPhone 14, backed up my old iPhone to iCloud. Now when i try to restore from that backup with the new iPhone everything transferred from the cloud except all my autofill passwords for all apps and websites. Any idea on how to solve this?

You need to enable iCloud Keychain in your settings to sync your passwords.


To enable:

  1. Tap Settings, tap [your name], then choose iCloud.
  2. Tap Keychain.*
  3. Turn on iCloud Keychain. You might be asked for your passcode or Apple ID password.
