Windows Desktop app Disagrees With macOS Desktop App About Password Strength

Options

I have both the Windows 10 desktop app (v7.6.793) and the macOS one (v7.8 (708000000), accessing the same vault. The macOS one will highlight weak passwords in the sidebar and in the individual items as being 'weak', but the same items in the Windows desktop app show as 'fair' or even 'good', so don't show up in the 'weak passwords' section of the sidebar. Why is there a difference between the two? I'd expect them to be the same.

Thanks.

    Hi @digitaldave!

    I know currently Watchtower can report different strength ratings across platforms in certain cases, but our developers are working towards having the same results everywhere. Hopefully this will come soon, sorry for the confusion in the meantime!
