Strong passwords are unique and random. Humans aren't very good at coming up with passwords that are either of those things, let alone both. So we created the 1Password Strong Password Generator to create secure, memorable passwords for you. 81% of data breaches are caused by weak or reused passwords, so random, unique passwords are your best defense against online threats. On the new-password page, 1Password should pop up with a suggested password. Click on this, and it’ll populate and save the password. If the window doesn’t pop up, you can click the 1Password icon.
1Password keeps track of all the passwords you create with the password generator, so you can get them back if you didn’t have a chance to save them.
