iOS Built-in Browser
Learn how to use mSecure's built-in-browser to automatically fill and submit your login information.
Browser Settings
By default, mSecure's built-in browser is set as the preferred browser. However, you can switch to Safari if desired.
- If using Safari, enable Auto-Copy on URL Launch to automatically copy your username and/or password.
- Alternatively, use the mSecure Extension in Safari or Chrome to log in.
How to Access Browser Settings
- Open and unlock mSecure.
- Tap the Menu icon.
- Tap Settings.
- Select Browser Settings
Additional Browser Settings
- Clear Cookies & Data - Resets the built-in-browser.
- Enable Auto-Submit - Allows mSecure to submit login credentials automatically.
- Set Default Home Page - Choose a custom homepage for the built-in-browser.
Login Record Type
mSecure's built-in browser relies on Login records to auto-fill and auto-submit credentials. However, any record with a URL field can launch the built-in browser.
Auto-Fill, Auto-Capture, and Auto-Submit
- When using mSecure's built-in browser, your username and password are automatically filled into sign-in forms.
- Tap a Website field in a Login record, and the site will open in mSecure's browser.
- mSecure will auto-fill and auto-submit your credentials when a sign-in form appears.
- If you log into an account not yet saved in mSecure, the app will attempt to auto-capture your credentials as a new Login record.
Note: Some websites may not support auto-fill, auto-capture, or auto-submit due to site design differences.
Using the Data Insert Menu
If auto-fill does not work, use Data Insert to manually input credentials.
How to the Access Data Insert Menu:
- Tap an input field on a website.
- Tap the Data Insert icon (top-right corner).
- Tap Back to access all stored records.
- Select the record and field you want to insert.
Note:The data insert menu allows you quick access to All Records, Web logins and favorites.
Password Generator
mSecure includes a Password Generator to create strong, random passwords. Combined with auto-fill and auto-submit, this tool helps you update account passwords securely.
How to Use the Password Generator:
- Open and unlock mSecure.
- Select a Login record.
- Tap the URL field to open the site in mSecure's browser.
- Log into your online account.
- Navigate to the website's password change page.
- mSecure will attempt to auto-fill your current password.
- Tap the Password Generator icon (next to the new password field).
- Generate a strong password and tap Copy.
- Paste the new password into the New Password and Confirm New Password fields.
Note: If mSecure detects a password change, it will prompt you to update your saved password. If not, manually update the record by pasting the new password and saving the changes.
Lock mSecure
Tap the Lock icon at the bottom of the screen to quickly lock the app.
