If you’ve found this video because you want to export your Safari passwords on your iPhone or iPad, well the short answer is you can’t. Unlike on Mac, I’m not aware that there’s an option on mobile that lets you do that. You can, however, copy a single password and share it using Airdrop, and I’ll link to my video which demonstrates that process, but you can’t export all your passwords on iPhone and iPad.
You can, however, do it on Mac, and there are several ways in which to do it.
Firstly, if you want to export all your passwords at once, open Safari, click on “File” in the menu, followed by Export Passwords. Apple pops up a warning explaining that the resulting file will display all your passwords in plain text so do take care regarding where you save the file and who has access to it. Choose where you wish to save the file, rename it if you want to, and the file will be created in a CSV or Comma Separated Values format.
If you only want to export some of your passwords but not all of them, open Safari’s Settings window, choose the passwords tab and then use touch ID or enter your credentials to see your list of passwords. You can then select the ones you wish to export, click on this little icon here, and choose this option. Again, you’ll receive the same warning as before and you can then save the CSV file.
It’s probably worth mentioning that you can also do exactly the same thing in System Settings. In Settings, click on Passwords, enter your credentials or use Touch ID, and this drop down menu here lets you export all your passwords. Alternatively, hold down the CMD key, select the ones you wish to export and then use the same menu to save your selection.
The CSV file that is created when exporting your passwords is a universally accepted format which can be used to easily import your passwords into other browsers such as Chrome or Firefox. For example, if you wanted to import your Safari passwords into Chrome, you would simply click on the menu icon, choose Settings, “AutoFill and Passwords” in the menu, followed by Password Manager. And there you have the option to import Passwords.
On Firefox it’s even easier because you don’t need to export anything. Simply, click on the menu icon, choose Settings and click on Import Data, choose Safari in the wizard, and select other data. And you’re done.
Finally, if you’re scratching your head wondering why you can’t export passwords from Keychain on a Mac, well Apple doesn’t offer this option. In Keychain, you can only export Certificates and Keys, not passwords.
So that is how to export your passwords from Safari.
