Why does the same password in two entries show different strength

Hi there AntonyB

Chances are that 1Password generated one of those passwords, and it was then copied to the other item. That means that 1Password doesn't really know where the second one came from – it doesn't compare a password to passwords in other items, because they should all be unique ideally anyway.

1Password will score the first one higher than the second because it knows that it was randomly generated. There's a "bonus" applied to the scoring in those cases.

Hope that helps explain it! :)
