how to generate a password?

@Dmytro222

I've passed along your request for a password generator to the team previously when you requested it in another thread earlier this year. I've added your new comments to the feature request as well. Thank you for the feedback.

In any case, the original poster's question has been answered so I'm closing this thread so that they don't continue to receive notifications. 🙂

Let's do the math:
1) Click on the application icon
2) Entering a password / touching your finger to the fingerprint reader
3) Click New Item
4) Click Login
5) Click on Password field
6) Click Create a New Password
7) I can't just copy the new password, so click on Use
8) Ctrl-C of the new password.
9) Click on the cross in the top right corner to close the window.
10) Click on Discard changes
11) Click on the button to close the application window or in my application window to continue

Not too many clicks? Try to "click" at least 10 passwords that way.

Eh, yeah, but I need to record your input for accurate tracking. 🙂

Well, I think one already exists from that other thread. But I'm happy to raise my hand in support of it.

It would be a feature request type of thing for the ability to generate passwords from within Quick Access. I'd be happy to add one on your behalf. 🙂

After adding my piece to this thread, I noticed y'all closed another thread earlier this month with 4 pages of people voicing their support for putting a "Generate Password" button in Quick Access. I guess maybe this thread boils down to a handful of additional names to add to that list?

You could open the desktop app and then click the blue (or your chosen highlight color) + New Item at the top of the screen. Or open 1Password in the browser and also click the blue + New Item.

Sure, it's a little better, but what about quick password generation outside of the web form?

@Dmytro222

That's a 1Password offering. 🙂 If you click it you should see a prompt similar to this.

I often generate passwords for other purposes, not only web forms. And Chrome uses its tooltip to create the password in the forms and I don't see a 1Password offer to generate the password. I have attached screenshot from wsj.com (as an example). Or is this a 1Password suggestion?
