Password Generator
Create strong, secure passwords in one click. Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is stored or sent anywhere.
Password Security Tips
- Use a unique password for every account — reusing passwords is the #1 cause of breaches
- Store passwords in a password manager (Bitwarden, 1Password, or your browser's built-in manager)
- Longer is always stronger — a 20-character password is exponentially harder to crack than a 10-character one
- Enable two-factor authentication wherever possible for an extra layer of security
- Never share passwords via email, SMS, or unencrypted apps
How to generate a strong password
Start with a length of at least 16 characters for most accounts. Then include uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols so the password has enough variety to resist guessing and brute-force attacks.
The goal is not just complexity. A strong password should also be unique for that account, easy to store in a password manager, and different from the passwords you already use elsewhere.
What makes a password stronger
- Longer length usually matters more than fancy formatting
- Mixed character types make guessing harder
- Ambiguous characters can be turned off if you need readability
- One password per account avoids reuse risk
Common mistakes
- Reusing the same password across multiple accounts
- Choosing a password that is short but visually complicated
- Saving passwords in plain text notes or chat messages
- Turning off too many character types and weakening the result
If you need to type the password manually, keep the ambiguous-character option in mind. Otherwise, keep it enabled for maximum randomness and use the copy button instead of retyping.
