About the random password generator
What this tool does
A random password generator builds a password out of random characters so it is hard to guess and hard to crack. You choose how long it is and which character types to use, and the tool returns a fresh password on the spot. It saves you from picking a weak password by hand or reusing one you already have, which is the main way accounts get broken into.

How to use it
- 1
Set the length
Drag the slider to choose how many characters the password has. Longer is stronger, and most sites are happy with 16 or more. The strength meter updates as you change it.
- 2
Pick character types
Turn on uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Using all four gives the widest mix and the strongest result. You can leave any of them off if a site does not allow it.
- 3
Skip look-alikes if you want
Turn on 'Exclude look-alike characters' to drop ones that are easy to mix up, like the letter O and the number 0, or lowercase L and the number 1. This helps when you have to type the password by hand.
- 4
Generate one or many
Set 'How many' to make a single password or a batch of up to fifty at once. A password appears right away and refreshes when you change a setting. Copy one at a time or copy the whole list, then run it again as often as you like.
Who this tool is for
Anyone who needs a strong password without inventing one can put this to work. These are the people who use it most:
- ·Anyone signing up for an account. Create a unique password for each new account instead of reusing one you already have. A fresh random password takes a second and keeps one leaked site from putting the rest at risk.
- ·People using a password manager. Generate a strong value here and paste it straight into your manager. You never need to remember it, so you can go as long and as random as the site allows.
- ·Developers and admins. Make quick keys, seeds, or placeholder secrets for a project or a test account. The symbol and length controls let you match most password rules in one go.
- ·Teams sharing a device. Set up a strong login for a shared computer, router, or Wi-Fi network. The look-alike filter makes the result easier to read out or type on another device.
What makes a password strong
A password is strong when it is hard to guess and long enough that trying every combination would take far too long. Two things drive that: how long the password is, and how many different characters it can draw from. Adding length helps more than any single trick, so raise it first.
Turning on more character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols) widens the pool each character is picked from, which raises the strength again. The meter above gives you a quick read based on both the length and the types you have on, so you can see the effect as you adjust the settings.
The safest habit is a long, random password that is different for every account, stored in a password manager. That way you never reuse one, and a leak at one site cannot unlock the rest.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I create a strong password?
- Set the length to 16 or more, turn on uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols, then click generate. A long password that mixes all four character types is hard to guess and hard to crack. Copy it and store it in a password manager so you do not have to remember it.
- How long should my password be?
- Longer is stronger. Aim for at least 12 characters, and 16 or more when a site allows it. Length adds far more protection than swapping a few letters for symbols, so raise the slider before anything else.
- Are these passwords random and safe to use?
- Yes. Each password is built from your device's secure random number generator, the same kind used for other security tasks in the browser. The result is unpredictable and different every time you generate.
- Does my password get sent anywhere?
- No. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded, logged, or saved. Once the page has loaded you can even go offline. When you close or reload the page the password is gone.
- What does 'Exclude look-alike characters' do?
- It drops characters that are easy to confuse when reading or typing, like the capital O and the number 0, or the lowercase L and the number 1. Turn it on when you need to type the password by hand or read it out to someone.
- Should I reuse the same password on more than one site?
- No. Use a different password for every account. If one site is breached, a unique password keeps that leak from unlocking your other accounts. A password manager makes it easy to store a separate one for each site.
- Can I generate more than one password at a time?
- Yes. Set 'How many' to any number up to fifty and every password comes back in one batch. You can copy each one on its own, or use Copy all to grab the whole list at once. This is the fast way to set up several accounts or hand out logins for a team.
- Is the random password generator free?
- Yes, it's completely free with no signup, no limits, and no watermarks. Generate as many passwords as you like.
