Thanks to everyone who reached out with feedback regarding password complexity and criteria and sharing valuable feedback as we’ve launched our new platform!
The team has worked quickly to address some of these requests and we’re rolling out the following updates around account passwords later today:
- The maximum password length will be updated to 125 characters.
Criteria for password will be simplified as follows:
- A minimum length of 15 characters
- Usernames should not be part of your password
- These criteria will be displayed to users creating a new password
We’ve consulted with the 1Password security team to make sure these requirements align with industry best practices.
Keep sharing your valuable feedback. We really appreciate it!

1Password_Community, Accepting passwords longer than the 1Password client's ability to generate is excellent, however it still fails to set a maximum size on the input field.
The fix is trivial: add `maxlength="125"` to the `input` element, i.e.
<input aria-label="password" aria-describedby="password" name="password" placeholder="Password" data-testid="InputField.RegistrationForm.password" autocomplete="new-password" type="password" id="RegistrationForm-password" class="PasswordField_lia-input-field__BTTE3 styles_form-control__h8E13" maxlength="125">
