Can I change the preferences for the password generator always to use pronounceable words? On my iPhone and using Chrome, it seems to default to using random characters, but I much prefer the pronounceable words with hyphens. Can't see any setting to allow this.

  • Hi @moogthemoog

    There isn't a preference to use one or the other -- they are both always available. If you're using the 1Password for iOS app it'll remember which option you last used (just tested to confirm).

    If you are using 1Password for iOS and are not seeing it remember your last used option could you please walk me through the steps your going through?

    Hi, it remembers the last choice (3 random words) when regenerating a new password but when creating a new login it defaults to the random characters. It did remember my choice when creating a new bank account though.

    I was able to confirm the same experience here. Unfortunately as I mentioned there isn’t a preference to change this, but I’ll speak with development and see if perhaps this is something they’d consider having 1Password remember your last used selection for, instead of defaulting to characters. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    No problem, I'm glad it wasn't just something I was doing wrong! Hopefully the developers will sort it.

    Many thanks Ben!
