These days we have got so many online accounts, and it could really be tough to remember all the IDs and Passwords. First of all, it’s always better to keep the record of those ID and Password that you rarely use, because you are more likely to forget such IDs or Passwords. Use Google Account as Password Keeper, and you can always view the ID and Password if you forget, but you must enable 2 step verification for Google Account to keep the IDs and Password protected. Now when you login to any online website on Chrome, you can save the credential, and this is applicable to Apple ID and Password as well. However, if you haven’t done so, and don’t remember Apple ID or Password, here is how you can recover them. Same ID and Password is also used for iCloud Account.
