Pros
- Works well for syncing passwords between Edge and Apple devices like iPad and iPhone.
- Makes life easier by simplifying password management.
- Provides an alternative to paid password managers with good performance in some cases.
Cons
- Autofill often does not work automatically; users must click the extension icon or manually copy and paste passwords.
- Requires entering a security code every time the browser is opened, which is inconvenient for some users.
- Extension stops working properly after recent updates or Windows updates, causing login information not to populate.
- Issues with synchronization and detection of password fields on various sites, sometimes not filling even on Apple websites.
- Extension sometimes prompts to download iCloud for Windows even when it is already installed; reinstalling does not fix the issue.

One of the worst things Apple has ever created.
Not only does the iCloud for Passwords app never launch, but the extension never recognises when Passwords and Keychain is actually turned on in the iCloud app, so the extension is always off by default and simply doesn't work and cannot be turned on.

This hasn't worked for me for months now. Everything is up to date, rebooted multiple times, just useless.

Used to work so well. Could connect with apple mobile devices/ipads. Something happened to it in the last few months and now the passwords no longer get downloaded. Can the Microsoft and Apple teams please work together to resolve? Thanks in advance.
