Customize password generator and configure default settings
Generate password generates passwords that are long, Some websites have limits on the length of the password. It would be nice if we can control the length of the password and also the kind of characters in the password(alphabets/numbers/special characters)

Also, speaking of password generation settings, please let the Chomium plugin read the desktop app's settings, or move those settings to cloud so that all instances of Proton Pass can use the same password generation settings. Currently the browser plugin, when asked to generate a password, always starts with default settings and I have to adjust them manually, every time, it can't even remember the last used configuration.

This is very useful inedeed. Actually 1P has extended this feature even further, they now generate a password that meets the requirements of the website (not sure how they do it, and certainly there are sites where this doesn't work, but despite of that is very useful).

Many websites that I use ask for complex passwords but do not allow specific special characters which are being used to generate passwords on Proton Pass. If we could specify which characters to use would be extremely helpful.

Enhance the password generator to allow users to set custom rules for password creation, such as excluding certain characters or specifying length and complexity requirements.
Benefits:
Provides more control over password creation to meet specific security policies or preferences.
Helps users create passwords that adhere to varying requirements across different platforms.
Use Case:
Users can generate passwords that fit specific criteria for their accounts or systems, improving compliance with security policies. -

I have found that I have to go back to Bitwarden to get a proper high grade generator of good passwords. Mainly because of this very feature lacking. (Visionary Account)

Password configuration options, much like auto saving passwords, and suggesting passwords are basic functions of a password manager. Shocking this isn't in there.

That's one thing I like about 1password. I can set a default that's more secure than the default default. I usually have 30 letter long passwords as default as most sites support it, and only lower it when I need too.

For password - give us an option for minimum special symbols, capital letters, numbers, option to not use easily mistakable symbols (eg uppercase i = lowercase L, letter O with number 0)
For passphrase - option for randomize capital letters, option to have different amount of digits (eg. Chair12-table0-Book-Candle894) -

I agree that Proton Pass should give users the ability to configure the length and type of characters in generated passwords - just like Bitwarden

I agree that Proton Pass should give users the ability to configure the length and type of characters in generated passwords.
Additionally, it would be beneficial if users were able to switch between generating random passwords or choosing a memorable password when creating new entries via the web browser extension. Having this option available could provide more flexibility for users who need more control over their security settings.
