   Hi,

   Where does the WordPress iOS App store user credentials?

   I’m hoping they are stored locally on the device and encrypted?

   Thanks

   Brad

   I had to ask about this. I found out that the WPiOS app uses the Keychain to store sensitive credentials such as the REST API token for WordPress.com logins or the password for self-hosted site logins.

   Also see https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/keychain_services.
