KEYCHAIN in ios8 not Working

Odd. Keychain password synching is working fine for me with ios8 on iphone5, ipad 2, and a Mac running Mavericks.
 
I noticed that it doesn't fill up the login credentials until you click the box and an auto fill option appears. I remember that on ios7 the boxes would fill up automatically and the user should only had to choose login.

Make sure you enable auto fill in Settings > Safari > Password & Aufofill

Safari is just filling the last used password. It is not suggesting other Accounts if u hav more than one on a page.

Thanks but It is enabled. First thing I checked. I also went through my key chain passwords. They are there ... But not being auto filled.

I also noticed new ones aren't being added.

Maybe that's just how it works now. We have to tap auto-fill ... Though that isn't auto-filling. I thought sites with remember me were supposed to keep you logged in. Works fine on my iPads with iOS 8 just not my 6 plus.

Ah. I was just speaking from experience. Sometimes when I reinstalled iOS 7 or 8 and it wouldn't give me the credentials, I would have to re-enable autofill in Safari settings.

I noticed that on Yosemite it doesn't seem to 'auto' fill anymore (some sites do, some don't), but if I click in the boxes it will give me the options for that site. Same for iOS 8. However, Keychain still syncs all my credentials.

Maybe they removed the auto-populate feature. Autofill does not necessarily mean automatically fill the boxes on the site when you visit it. On sites where I chose the 'remember me' option it will keep me logged in, like this forum for example. But that is site specific.

i've noticed on my ipads that when I come to this site I'm logged in with remember me. But on my 6+ I have to relog in every time...even though I tick the Remember Me on...every time. Something isn't right.
