Frequently Asked Questions

How does the password generator work?

Our password generator uses the Web Crypto API's cryptographically secure random number generator to create truly random passwords. You customize the length (6-32 characters) and character types (uppercase, numbers, symbols), then click 'Generate Password'. The tool creates a password using secure randomness and displays its strength score instantly.

What makes a password strong?

A strong password has: 1) At least 12 characters (16+ is better), 2) Mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, 3) Numbers, 4) Special characters, 5) No common words or patterns. Our strength meter analyzes your password against these criteria and provides suggestions for improvement. Very Strong passwords score 100% on our meter.

Can I customize password options?

Yes! You can customize: password length (6-32 characters), include/exclude uppercase letters, include/exclude numbers, include/exclude symbols, exclude similar characters (like i, l, 1, o, 0), and exclude ambiguous symbols. Use our Quick Presets (Basic, Standard, Strong, Maximum) for common configurations or adjust settings manually.

What are similar characters and why exclude them?

Similar characters are those that look alike and can be confused: i (lowercase i), l (lowercase L), 1 (number one), L (uppercase L), o (lowercase o), 0 (zero), O (uppercase O). Excluding them makes passwords easier to type accurately and reduces errors when reading from screen or paper. Enable this option in settings.

How do I generate multiple passwords at once?

Use the 'Generate Multiple' slider to select how many passwords you want (1-10), then click 'Generate' button. All passwords will be added to your password history. You can view them by expanding the Password History section, copy individual passwords, or download all as JSON for later use.

Can I save generated passwords?

Yes! Passwords are automatically added to your Password History (last 10). You can: 1) View them in the history panel, 2) Copy individual passwords to clipboard, 3) Download all passwords as a JSON file with generation settings and timestamp. However, for long-term storage, use a reputable password manager.

What is the password strength meter?

The strength meter analyzes your password against multiple criteria: length (minimum 8, better 12+), character variety (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, symbols), and complexity patterns. It scores from 0-100% and labels passwords as Very Weak, Weak, Moderate, Strong, or Very Strong. It also provides specific suggestions to improve weak passwords.

Is password generation secure and private?

Yes! All password generation happens locally in your browser using the Web Crypto API, which provides cryptographically secure randomness. Your passwords are never sent to our servers or transmitted anywhere. The generation is entirely client-side, ensuring complete privacy. However, always store passwords in a trusted password manager.
