About

gjPwd

Features
Read full description

Use gjPwd to generate passwords that are both secure and memorable, making them easier to enter manually. The complexity of the generated passwords can be configured by specifying: - the number of words - the minimum and maximum word length - the word case transformation - the separator between words - the number of digits before and after words - the amount, and type, of padding at the beginning and end of the password Alternatively, the app includes several pre-set password configurations. Generated passwords are automatically copied to the clipboard of your device and, if Universal Clipboard is configured correctly, will be copied to you other devices' clipboards. This is useful, for example, for generating a password on an iPhone and pasting it into a website on a Mac. Features: - Requires iOS 17.5 or later. - Designed for iPhone but also works on iPad. - Specify the number and complexity of passwords to generate. - Passwords are automatically copied to the Universal Clipboard. - Inspired by xkpasswd from Bart Busschots. - Supports system dark and light modes. gjPwd works completely locally on your device. It does not collect, store, or transmit any data you enter into it, or the passwords it generates. PLEASE NOTE: gjPwd is NOT a password manager, it is a password generator. Use it in conjunction with your existing password management solution.
