iOS 17 Adds New Features for Managing Two-Factor Authentication Codes
-
iOS 17 can automatically delete used 2FA codes from Messages after use. Enable in Settings.
-
2FA codes auto-fill like passwords with iCloud Keychain since iOS 15. No need to open another app.
-
For more security, use non-SMS 2FA methods when possible like auth apps.
-
See recently deleted codes in Messages by tapping Edit > Show Recently Deleted.
-
iOS 17 also brings shared iCloud Keychain passwords between family members.
