Feature request - A tool to just generate passwords

Sometimes we want a tool to generate random passwords to put in into any other place like AWS tools, Hashicorp Vault, etc. I believe it'd be great to have a button to generate a random password rather than have to create on the Add New Item button, choose the type, generate a random pass and then discard it. It'd be quicker.

BTW.: The interface usability of this forum could be increased, it was terrible to find out how to post this message.

    Click the 1Password icon in your browser. Then click the Menu and select Password Generator.

    Not all passwords are browser related. I would really like to generate passwords without having to start the browser.

    Hi @jefoso! Was the information provided by @JohnInCA helpful here, or were you looking for a password generator accessible without needing to open a browser, as mentioned by @viswiz?

    Yeah, it can help but having it in the main tool would be preferable because, in my case, my first action, when I need something regarding to passwords, is to open up the desktop app. I believe that's my first action because since the beginning the desktop app was more complete than the chrome extension so I only use the extension when 1Pass doesn't fill in the user and pass in an website.

    Thanks.

    Hi @jefoso, thanks for getting back to me! I'm glad to hear that @JohnInCA's suggestion helped.

    I can definitely understand how having an item-independent password generator within the desktop app could be more streamlined and intuitive. I've filed a feature request on your behalf with our product team, including all of the details you've provided here.

    If you have any further feedback or questions, let me know! 😄
