Since version 6.x this is a bug and still unfixed.

I have a unique strong password but 1Password tells me, it is terrible/weak:

    Hi @neonox

    Did you generate this password with the 1Password password generator? Or did you enter it manually / copy & paste it there?

    I would say it was generated, but this does the trick, if I remove the password and copy&paste it back it switches to "Excellent".

    Thanks for the update. 1Password uses a different formula to calculate passwords that it generates directly vs ones that are typed in (as it has no useful information about the entropy of the password in the latter case).
