Stored passwords seem gone after 18.1.1 update

Settings menu listing seems significantly truncated, and ‘Passwords’ is missing.

Can I still access them ?

iPhone 11, iOS 18

In iOS 18, the Passwords section in Settings was replaced by a brand new application: Passwords. If this app was removed from your device, download it again: App Store - Passwords.

The passwords will be automatically downloaded from iCloud to the Passwords app once you reinstall it. In the off chance they don’t, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Passwords and turn on Sync this iPhone.
