Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a password strong?
A strong password is long (at least 12 characters), includes a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols, and avoids common words or patterns.
Can I customize the password characters?
Yes, use the dropdown to choose between letters only, letters and numbers, or all characters (including symbols). You can also toggle options like excluding ambiguous characters.
Is my password stored anywhere?
No, your password is generated locally in your browser and not stored or sent anywhere. The history is only kept in your current browser session.
Why does the strength vary?
Strength depends on length and character variety. Longer passwords with more types of characters (e.g., symbols) are stronger.
Can I generate multiple passwords at once?
Currently, the tool generates one password at a time. You can generate multiple passwords by clicking the "Generate" button repeatedly.
Are the passwords truly random?
Yes, passwords are generated using JavaScript's cryptographically-strong random number generator. The algorithm ensures high entropy and unpredictability.
