Some sites exclude characters like % and / and * from passwords can you handle this in the “recipes”

On iOS 12 when creating or changing passwords setting the recipes to a certain number of special characters may generate characters that are forbidden by the site. Is there a workaround other than skipping special characters?

  • Hi @MrCurmudgeon

    We've been experimenting with attempting to exclude characters from password generation based on known site requirements. The only workaround I'm aware of in the mean time would be to adjust the sliders until you get a generated password that does not include any disallowed characters, or to manually edit any disallowed characters out (perhaps replacing them with allowed characters) after generation.

    It is something we'd like to improve, but I don't any any specifics beyond that at this point.

    Seldom used and probably not worth it would be an exclude these characters dialogue box.

  • Yeah. That would certainly be one option. :)
