Tired of those annoying CAPTCHA images that leave you feeling like you're solving a puzzle just to log in online? Learn how to use Apple's "CAPTCHA killer" feature called Automatic Verification in iOS 16.

CAPTCHAs can be quite annoying when you just want to try to create a new account or log in to a website.

Apple hopes to solve the friction of CAPTCHAs with a new feature in iOS 16.1; this feature, called Automatic Verification, will allow websites to verify you're logging in from a real device and are not a bot but without the manual process that comes with CAPTCHAs.

Apple's solution uses your iCloud account and a service Apple runs to issue a secure token to the website to verify you're a real person.

While website support for Automatic Verification is still rolling out, I'll show you how to enable it so that when you encounter a website that does offer support, you will get in quicker and without the inconvenience of solving a CAPTCHA test.

Apple has security top of mind when it comes to this feature, too: Apple doesn't know what website you're attempting to access, and the website you're entering cannot access your Apple account at any time.
