Add numbers to 1Pass Memorable Password Generation
Saw a discussion from several years ago about this, and it still hasn't happened. Many sites now ask us to provide Mixed Case letters, Special Characters, and Numbers. The New Item generator handles all these except numbers. PLEASE add this capability. It's stupid for me to generate a memorable pw, but then have to go in and manually add several numbers. Please help.
Hi DHK, thanks for writing in!
The Smart Password type in the extension will typically catch any password character requirements for a website. So, for websites with selective password creation that's often a good choice. If you're looking for an option with the Memorable Password type specifically, you could set the separator to Numbers, or Numbers and Symbols (shown below in the extension, but works in app too).
Would this work for what you had in mind? If not, could you share a bit more about the option you'd like to see? Thanks again!

Somehow missed your reply… that’s perfect for my Mac where I do most additions ,,, but I did not see that option on iOS. Is it there?

Hi DHK,
I'm happy to hear that suits your needs! In the iOS app, you should see the same option when you tap in the password field when creating/editing an item and select Create a New Password. Switching the Type to Memorable Password should then allow you to change the Separator to Numbers, as in the screenshot sent previously:
To confirm, are you not seeing that option on your device?
