In iOS 7.0.6 and below, there was a toggle in the Safari Passwords&Autofill on my iPhone that enabled me to "Always Allow" for saving of passwords even on websites that opted out.

In iOS 7.1, it's not there anymore. Am I missing something? Does anyone still have it even with iOS 7.1?

I believe that is what icloud keychain does. It saves your passwords to the cloud so you do not have to re-enter them.

It is found in the settings--icloud menu
 
Actually, I was referring to the Safari > Passwords & Autofill preference pane in iOS settings. Prior to iOS 7.1, there was an "Always Allow" toggle in this pane that would make sure all websites had their passwords be saved, even those that did not specify them to be saved (e.g., banks).

Here's a link showing a picture further down the page that does show the "Always Allow" toggle. It has seemed to disappear with the 7.1 update, though. I'm trying to confirm if others no longer see this setting, as well, or if it's something on my end (a corrupt iOS install)?

I don't see it anymore on mine, and I don't see it in Safari for Mac anymore either.

Oh. I thought you meant the whole menu was missing. That is a SS of my settings, so I guess it is gone then.
 
I have not updated yet but hope that option is still there as its a pain in the a$$ having to key in this on certain forums.
