With Pronounceable Password Generator you can generate all kinds of passwords. It excels at producing passwords that are pronounceable and thus easy to remember. But if you'd like, you can also create fully random passwords which arbitrarily mix uppercase and lowercase characters with numbers and special characters for maximum security. Pronounceable passwords can be built from English syllables, among others. Of course, the password length can be adjusted. For added convenience, Pronounceable Password Generator presents you with a whole list of generated passwords to choose from. The password you select can then be copied to the clipboard right away by simply tapping on it. If you, however, do not like any of the passwords in the list, you can generate another bunch easily by tapping the refresh button.

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.
