Safari autofill fills in wrong information when you need different details
Safari is using the wrong autofill profile. You can change which information Safari uses as the default, or delete old profiles you no longer need.
Safari's autofill feature stores your contact information, addresses, and payment methods. When you have multiple profiles or outdated info saved, it may autofill the wrong one. We'll show you how to change which profile Safari uses by default, or delete ones you don't need.
