Personally, I would forget about Safari and get a good Password App like oneSafe. I've tried several and this does it all and more. May not be your solution answer, but that's what I'd do. Good luck.

Keychain on Mac plain sucks. I had to log in on my iPad Air and then was only able to save the password and have it stick.

In Mac Safari, it says it's saving it, but it doesn't. Just spent the last 15 minutes almost pulling my ****ing hair out chasing this stupid Keychain.

^^I had the same experience. Did the keychain save on my password then it wouldn't recall it when logging in. Had to email the site, get new password and start all over. Not worth the trouble and now I don't trust it.

Count me in as one who has had countless problems with iCloud Keychain - apparently it is still quite sporadic even in Safari with certain websites. And of course, because it is an API that has to be implemented by devs into their apps, not many apps currently work with it either.

I think for the time being, iCloud keychain remains a nice idea, but not quite ready for widespread use.

Most likely culprit here is Safari. Open your Safari web page, then click the page icon on the right upper corner. This will minimize the page and give you the option of adding another page etc. There you will also find a "Private" tab, if it is white you have selected private browsing and Safari will not remember any passwords. Click it to deselect, then verify your settings allow your device to remember passwords.

One indication you are in private browsing is that Safari will not have anything on the history pages.

That's it.
