Can I sign on to hotel TV with iPassword? Assume that IPassword app is not installed on hotel TV.

How will this password manager work on devices that do not have the iPassword app? Many hotels with smart TVs allow one to access their Netflix, Amazon and etc accounts, but you must enter your username and password. It is not clear to me that I will be able to do this without entering the account password manually, not through iPassword. Please explain.

    Hi @chicohans

    Generally you would need to manually enter your password(s) on such devices. For such cases you may want to consider using a 'words' based password, instead of a 'characters' based password:

    Using the words recipe has the advantage of a strong unique password while making it easier to remember and/or type these passwords. I would caution anyone considering entering their passwords on an untrusted device, though. There is no telling what that device might do with those credentials.
