PassGen Plus generates strong, secure passwords instantly — three different ways. RANDOM Pure randomness from a customizable character set. Numbers and special characters are guaranteed to appear when enabled — not just statistically likely. PASSPHRASE Combines words from a 56,000+ word dictionary into memorable phrases like "horse-lamp-river74". Easy to type, hard to crack. PRONOUNCEABLE Alternating consonant-vowel patterns produce passwords that sound like words without being words. Easier to recall than random strings and stronger than word-based passwords. STRENGTH METER Every password shows a real-time strength rating with the actual entropy in bits — a precise measure of how difficult your password is to crack, not a vague label. CUSTOMIZABLE • Password length from 8 to 64 characters • Word count from 3 to 8 words (Passphrase mode) • Toggle numbers and special characters on or off • All settings saved automatically between sessions PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything is generated on-device. No accounts, no network requests, no data collection. Your passwords never leave your device.
