I found this so helpful I just had to post it. In the linked article is a method to turn Apple iCloud Passwords into a (kinda) stand-alone app for the Home Screen. Apart from providing much easier access to your passwords and passkeys you can quickly change passwords and set up 2FA where available.

I saw this recently in their e-mail blast but haven't taken the time to look at it more closely yet. It looks potentially useful.

I think overall it just makes the process so much more accessible on iOS/iPadOS.
The security check is the first thing I see and the provided links to the sites in question really gets the ball rolling towards updating compromised passwords. I did update one and the procedure is so simple.
The other nice thing is the potential to get rid of all my other 2FA Authenticaror apps like Google.
