Saved Safari passwords in real text in Settings.app

Hi,

I just noticed that in iOS 7 beta you can actually read all passwords you've ever decided to save in the Settings.app->Safari->Autofill->Saved passwords. Has it always been like that? On Macs, for intance, there's the keychain app, but you can see the passwords only after you've entered your admin password (as far as I know).

Does anybody know if it was the same in iOS 6?

I think it shouldn't be that way. What if someone else uses your phone for a second (with your consent) and thereby has the chance to quickly learn some of your passwords and then uses them later to login from another device?

Thanks!

 

Yes, it shows the whole username (or email, if the login requires an email as a username) and password.

Edit: ah, good to know it asks for the passcode, I guess I'll just reenable mine then

Edit 2:
But btw, the method with the enabled passcode works only if it's set to immediate. Another flaw if you ask me.
