Following that, if you already have of passwords stored for websites on other devices, they should sync nearly immediately. If not, you can either enter them one at a time in Accounts & Passwords, or you can navigate to the website, and Safari will ask you if you want to save the passwords in the Keychain with every new website you visit.
