> Most password managers don’t do jack inside a native app (for good security reasons - thank you Apple)

This isn't true on iOS 12; there's a pretty good OS-wide password manager API. (And older versions of iOS don't get security updates so your device is pretty easy to compromise if you're not upgrading.) It securely pops up the password manager similar to popping up a share screen, so no copying and pasting is involved.

> A number of services force you to change passwords every couple of months. They save (may be hash) the old passwords so you can’t use them. How many goddamn passwords is one supposed to remember?

One. You put the changed passwords in your password manager, too.
