It would be nice to add also the possibility to choose the language for the mnemonic password.

It is good to have also the possibiity use a passphrase

i would love to have this, and also an increase to the character limit of passwords from 64-100, 1Password offers 100 max characters, i'd like that in Proton Pass too. i'm using random gens and copy pasting, no point not maxing out the characters for some use cases like encryption of backup drives.

Recently, I have come across several different websites, each with their own unique password rules. For example, one site required at least 6 lowercase letters in the password, while others had different requirements regarding the number and type of characters. Currently, the Proton Pass password generator allows for general customization (length, inclusion of uppercase/lowercase letters, digits, and special characters), but it does not offer precise control over the minimum number of each character type, nor the ability to save such a template for future use.

Desired Functionality

- The ability to create and save custom password templates (e.g., at least 6 lowercase letters, 2 uppercase letters, 3 digits, 1 special character from a selected set).
- Assigning a template to a specific website or domain, so that every generated password automatically meets that site's requirements.
- Quick selection or editing of templates when generating a password, both in the browser extension and mobile app.

More and more websites are introducing unique password requirements, such as a minimum number of lowercase letters, a restricted set of special characters, or a specific password structure. At present, users must manually generate passwords and check if they meet the criteria, which is time-consuming and frustrating. Templates would automate this process, increasing both convenience and security for Proton Pass users.

Allow us to configure how many special characters, numbers should be in the password. I often end up with more alphanumeric characters than I do symbols and it is not a great experience re rolling my password until I am happy with the amount of symbols in it

There is a limit of how many bits a cipher can use for representing a key. At a certain very long password length you run into duplicated results for what the password represents.

In the short term It would be nice to display the length of the generated password too. Sites sometimes need it less than n characters and it’s a pain modifying passwords to be that when it’s not easy to know their length

Just found this out too.
Number of words is important but also the number of generated characters (there are apps that have max number of characters)

Yes, and please ALLOW Longer passwords. Most of my generated passwords with bitwarden are 98 chars long. Proton pass limits generated passwords to 64 chars. Since the passwords are generated, and saved in a password manager, shouldn't they default to the longest/strongest settings?

I'm aware the some sites have MUCH shorter limits. But I have over 600 sites saved, and probably only 20 to 40 have limited me, which is surprising, and also fun that so many of my login credentials have incredibly long and complicated passwords.

A lot of site have character min and max character limits for passwords (usually between 8 and 20 characters). It would be nice to be able to set those limits in the password manager when trying to create a password so that users do not have to generate multiple passwords just get one that fits.

I dont think the increase would provide any meaningful increase in security given you would be presumably be dealing with quantum already if it could easily C.rack the current limit.

Many websites have a maximum password character limit, you should be able to enter a max length in advanced options as well as a list of excluded characters

Further in the memorable passwords option, give more granular control of adding numbers and symbols.
I want the sub option if I have added numbers to set how many. 1 or 2 or 3 or ... N
Also do I want numbers with each word, or a block of numbers to be added (how many blocks, how long is each block.
I also want the same options for random symbols.
right now the only option is pick a particular symbol from a list (-_. etc.), or use "numbers and symbols" as the separator and this does not guarantee that any symbols will be included.
a memorable password like: Correct@67Horse25%Battery{94Staple92^
would do much to improve password entropy.
Thanks

For some reason the password generator used by Proton Pass is surprisingly negative and borderline vulgar. Also some of the words it is using are such that if I'm for example generating a password for a client, I just have to regenerate a new one. Sometimes it takes quite many clicks before I get a decent one.

Yes, this is a small thing and it is possible that it is "just me", but if you could change the word dictionary to something more uplifting (or event neutral), it would make using Proton Pass more positive experience.

For example I just generated few password using the tool:

Lusty6-Barrier4-Porthole4
Unmoral2-Nuclear8-Unbraided0
Clumsy9-Mashing2-Unlocking3
Spoiled9-Pointed3-Defiance6
Unearned6-Sequence7-Silliness5

Same here. Strange behavior right now. I want 30 or 40 chars random passwords but whenever I change this setting, it is reset to 20 chars every time.
Other password managers do remember the last settings used.

Similar to the feature where you can adjust password length by number of words, except for characters. I'm semi-regularly encountering websites that I need to use but require passwords with fewer than 25 (or even 20!) characters.

Currently the "random password" generator shows the number of characters as you generate a password, but the "memorable password" does not. Right now you either have to guess or manually count when trying to fit into a websites character limit.

For me, I like to exclude characters. I don't like 1lOoi, basically any character that could look like another.

In order to keep my passwords fresh and increase security all while maintaining the ability to actually remember them, i have fwo approaches to creating passwords that involve a word, a number, a specific nontraditional character, and a specific approach to how i create the new passwords. They often relate to each other for a maximum of 4 passwords, but the variation is such that they always register as strong and the similarities are off extremely limited value to hackers.
institute the concept of custom rules, sequences, and preprogrammed rules/sequences.
For example, a rule could be "for every letter typed, follow by a number", then a sequence could be "every number shall be a multiple of 4; start-0"

Then after some experimenting and suggestions from users, general rules and sequences could be added as the service grows. I'll include some more elaborate examples of sequences taken from Excel and its application of it. Ill post text and try to include the screenshot if possible.Its been a joy!

Syntax:
=SEQUENCE(rows, [columns], [start], [step])

rows: Number of rows for the array

[columns]: [Optional] Number of columns for the array. Defaults to 1 if omitted

[start]: [Optional] Starting value for the sequence. Defaults to 1

[step]: [Optional] Increment between each value in the sequence. Defaults to 1

Return value:
An array of sequential values, arranged as specified by the rows and columns arguments.

How to use:

Use SEQUENCE to generate a list of numbers in an orderly sequence. This function can be used to create simple numeric sequences.

Examples:
Simple SEQUENCE

Creating a Sequential Number List: To generate a vertical list of numbers from 1 to 5:
=SEQUENCE(5)

This formula produces an array of 5 numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) in a vertical arrangement.

SEQUENCE for Two-Dimensional Arrays
Generating a Two-Dimensional Number Grid: Creating a 3×3 grid of sequential numbers:
=SEQUENCE(3, 3)

This formula creates a 3×3 array, with numbers from 1 to 9 arranged in three rows and three columns.

SEQUENCE with Custom Start and Step
Creating a Custom Sequence: Generating numbers starting from 10, incrementing by 5:

=SEQUENCE(4, 1, 10, 5)
Produces a vertical array: 10, 15, 20, 25.

SEQUENCE for Negative and Positive Ranges
Counting Up and Down with
SEQUENCE: Creating a sequence from -5 to 5:

=SEQUENCE(11, 1, -5, 1)
Generates a vertical array from -5 to 5.

I too have run across multiple cases where I could use capabilities I do not have in Proton Pass. I am SLOWLY trying to transition from 1Password.

• Allow me to control password length
• Allow me to control the list of acceptable special characters
• Allow me to set how minimum for each character type

• Generalized Health-Strength assessment is not very helpful... I something more quantitative... Hive Systems time to ***** would be better as would these metrics... not sure which is best but having the ability to see them all woulld cover all the bases...
• Include a test-check for user created and ProtonPass generated passwords to see if they have been used / found in breached data using HaveIBeenPawned and other resources.

I believe UIC and Password Meter are the same...

A Proton Pass Password Health-Strength Tester will help Proton customers by giving us a trusted place to test passwords while creating them. It will also give us a better picture of the Health of all our passwords and allow for the setup of criteria to improve them. Finally, if it is public, it will give all users a trusted source to generate and create and test passwords and measure there strength as comprehensively as anywhere. This will result in more people adopting Proton Pass and other Password Managers. It could also generate income from links to other password managers that Proton (which is interested in security and privacy for all ) recommends based on their fidelity to Proton's goals of privacy and security for all internet users. I is wise to supply the needs of a marketplace.
