   The options are "website passwords"

   :

   "remember," "don't remember," or "ask each time". So you need to select one that's more relative and more suitable for you. But you have the option of then not remembering your password, so you have to enter it each time that is obviously more secure.

    Ask each time, if they want you to remember the password or just remember them universally so every time you type a password it will just automatically remember it forever

My Lumia 535 asks for passwords on some websites, however it is not asking me if I would like to save it?

Is there some function I need to turn on to save the passwords, so that I do not have to keep entering them.. I have tried: New phone and not seeing where to set this up.. I think it was caused by: Me being a novice.
