About the Password Generator
Weak and reused passwords are the main way accounts get hacked. This generator creates truly random passwords using your browser’s cryptographically secure random generator. Choose a length from 4 to 64 characters, pick character sets, and exclude look-alike characters like l, 1, I, O and 0. Passwords are created on your device and never sent anywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I generate a strong password?
Choose a length of at least 16, keep all character types ticked and click Generate. Copy the password into your password manager.
How long should a password be?
At least 12 characters; 16 or more is recommended for important accounts.
Is this password generator safe?
Yes. Passwords are created in your browser using crypto.getRandomValues and are never transmitted or stored.
What makes a password strong?
Length and randomness. A random 16-character password with mixed characters would take billions of years to brute-force.
Should I include symbols?
Yes when the website allows them; they increase strength. Untick them if a site rejects symbols.
What does “exclude ambiguous characters” do?
Removes characters that look alike (l, 1, I, O, 0) so passwords are easier to read and type.
How do I remember random passwords?
Use a password manager such as Bitwarden, 1Password or your browser’s built-in manager.
Should I use the same password on different sites?
Never. If one site is breached, every account with that password is at risk.
How often should I change my password?
Change it when there’s a breach or suspicion of misuse; a strong unique password doesn’t need regular changes.
Is the Password Generator free to use?
Yes, generate as many passwords as you like.
