How to Generate a Strong Password Online Free
A weak password is the easiest way into an account — and a strong one is hard to invent on the spot. This guide shows how to generate a strong, random password for free, in your browser, with the length and character types you choose, and why each choice makes it stronger. Use the free strong password generator below to create your password in seconds.
How to Generate a Strong Password — step by step
- Set the length using the “Length” field.
- Tick or untick Uppercase, Lowercase, Numbers and Symbols.
- Press “Generate password”.
- Press “Copy” to copy the new password, and press Generate again if you want a different one.
Tips
- Longer is stronger — 16 characters or more, using several character types, is a good target for important accounts.
- Symbols widen the set of possible characters, which makes guessing much harder — if a site does not allow them, untick them and increase the length instead.
- Your password is generated on your device with your browser's random number generator and is never uploaded anywhere.
