Suggested Password Strength "Fair" and "Weak"

Question

When viewing passwords that have been automatically suggested by the Safari extension in the Mac app, it shows the strength as FAIR or WEAK. But, when viewing the same passwords on the 1Password website, they show full green bars in the strength field. Why do suggested passwords I save show up as FAIR or WEAK in the Mac app but not the website?

Hey @tacticalnova:Watchtower, which includes the password strength calculation, operates slightly different across our platforms. As we move to normalize this and share more experiences across all of our platforms, this inconsistency should smooth itself out over time. Thanks for letting us know!Jack
