Round 2.5 years in the past, I misplaced entry to my main google account. Undecided I forgot password or it acquired compromised. However a curious factor has occurred since I’ve not given up attempting to get well that account. The gmail and youtube remained logged in on my iPhone 5S. When it grew to become unattainable to maintain utilizing the iPhone with out updating 2 years in the past, I reluctantly up to date, even needed to reset attributable to error, however to my amazement, the google account logged in routinely after reinstalling the apps, implying that the password was inside iPhone or iCloud. And YouTube logs in afresh each time I begin it, until this date, so there’s that.

I took assist of web and located that password for this account was there and visual in settings app. It was an outdated password, which I had already modified months earlier than I misplaced entry. I attempted logging in utilizing that password on browser and naturally it did not work. It is the identical password in Keychain. So, which means these apps are utilizing a distinct password than what’s being proven in settings and keychain.

Is there a approach I can get this password from my iPhone (iOS 12.5.5), even when it requires jailbreaking? Why does keychain have unsuitable password and but there’s another supply from the place iPhone is pulling passwords even right now which even survived the reset? Please be happy to counsel any wild concepts you might need to get this password, I am keen to go to any lengths and will probably be grateful until dying.
