I restored my iPhone 6 because it kept shutting off multiple times. I restored my backup but there are no passwords. I wasn’t getting email so I just changed my Gmail password. I went to use my iPad 3 if that makes an difference, in class today for Drive and it doesn’t have the updated pswd. 🤦🏽*♀️

Your iPad SHOULD prompt you for the new password. Have you tried signing out and then back in?

Are you referring to passwords saved to your iCloud Keychain? If so, are you certain that you’re signed into iCloud on the iPad?

In addition, you can go to Settings→ Accounts & Passwords → App & Website passwords. Scroll down to the bottom of the list and then select “Add Password”. After that, add the new password for your Gmail account.
