Ever have to create a password for a website with extremely fussy requirements? Say, 18 characters long, with at least four special characters and a numeral or two for good measure?

1Password makes that as easy as adjusting a few sliders.

Customising 1Password’s randomly generated complex passwords couldn’t be less complicated.

Start with the 1Password extension by clicking the button in your browser window, then click Generate Password. By default, 1Password creates a 14-character password with a mix of upper- and lowercase letters, two numerals and a special character. Pretty tough to crack.

Click More Options to disable symbols or numbers if the site doesn’t allow those, or to change the password length. If that’s not good enough, open the 1Password app, which lets you specify the exact number of symbols and numerals (and even omit ambiguous characters, such as zero and O).
