The format has a job.
A site wants a password with exact rules and you want one that fits them without inventing it yourself.
Utilities & Security
When you just need a one-off password without opening a password app, creating an account or fighting through settings. Choose the exact mix of capitals, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols you want.
Your password
: 8 characters is handy for sites with old limits; for important accounts, use a longer unique password whenever the service allows it.
Useful to know
A site wants a password with exact rules and you want one that fits them without inventing it yourself.
Generating a strong password does not store it for you or protect it after you copy it.
Make sure the length and character mix match the site, then save the result somewhere you trust before leaving the page.
If you will handwrite it, avoiding confusing characters such as O / 0 and I / l / 1 makes later retyping less annoying.
