How Do I... Update a Saved Password on a Mobile Device

Introduction

Modern web browsers have a feature called Saved Password that saves your password so you don’t have to remember and type it next time when you visit the same website. The first time you are logging into a website you have never logged in before on the browser, it will ask if you want to save the password. If you use the Saved Password feature the password you entered will be saved in the browser and will be automatically used to login the next time you visit the website.

Please consider disabling the Saved Password feature in favour of a Password Safe.
