Frequently asked questions
- How do I generate a strong password?
- Set the length to 16 or more, enable all four charsets (lower, upper, digits, symbols), and click Generate. The strength bar confirms it's strong; copy it with one click.
- How long should a password be?
- 16 characters is a good baseline; 20+ if you can. Length matters more than complexity — every extra character roughly doubles the time to crack by brute force.
- Should I use special characters?
- Yes when the site allows them — they widen the alphabet and increase strength. If a site rejects symbols, compensate with extra length.
- Are password generators safe?
- This one is. Passwords are generated entirely in your browser using crypto.getRandomValues (a cryptographically secure source) and never sent to any server.
- What is a passphrase vs password?
- A passphrase is a sequence of words ("correct horse battery staple"); a password is a string of mixed characters ("X9!q@vR2…"). Both work — pick what's easier for you to use with a manager.
- How do I create a password I can remember?
- Don't — use a password manager. If you must, generate a passphrase of 5+ random words. Don't reuse passwords across sites under any circumstances.
- Can I generate multiple passwords at once?
- Yes. Set the batch size from 1 to 20 and Generate produces a list. Useful for setting up a new system or rotating multiple credentials.
- What makes a password weak?
- Short length, dictionary words, predictable patterns (qwerty, 1234), reuse across sites, and personal info that can be guessed (birthdays, names).
- Should I reuse passwords?
- No. One leaked site exposes every other account that shares the password. A password manager makes unique passwords effortless.
- Do I need a password manager?
- Yes — it's the single biggest security upgrade you can make. Bitwarden, 1Password and the built-in browser managers are all good.
