Password generator
Mix capitals, small letters, digits, and symbols, then copy. The password is not sent anywhere.
Type a number from 4 to 50. Leaving the field snaps to the nearest allowed length.
Keep at least one kind of character on.
Why this exists
A new password that follows a rule is useful when the same one should not be reused.
The value lives on this screen. Make another and the previous one is gone.

01How to use it
Slide the length or type a number. Below 4 or above 50, a note appears.
Turn on ABC, abc, 123, or #$@!.
Press Copy, or ↺ to make another. Changing the length or a kind builds a new password.

02What you get
Length 12 with capitals, small letters, and digits is 71 bits, fair.
Length 20 with the same kinds is 119 bits, very strong. Symbols add more bits at the same length.

03Worth knowing
One character from each chosen kind is placed first, then the order is shuffled. A digit kind that is on cannot be missing.
A number outside 4 to 50 is corrected when you leave the field.
Turning off every kind keeps the last one on and shows a note.
After copying, the button label changes for two seconds. The password itself is not stored.
