Suggest Passwords

I think that suggesting safe and protected password like chrome has would be a really good addition to brave as Chrome has it and it is really useful. If it is already in the works thats even better.

How could they have missed this? They have password management and saving. Right now every time a password is asked for, I have to open a new tab, open a strong password generator, copy the newly generated password, switch tab back to the password request, paste it it in. Then Brave saves it. Someone made a big mistake not adding this feature.

yes we need this feature, but please make a setting where we can manage how this password will generated (length, numbers, 1"/$… and only lowercase …)

This would be a fantastic feature. I generally don’t like add-ins or extensions because they add a security risk and this being added as a core feature would be great. Thanks to the Brave team for a fantastic browser and all your hard work!

I agree with the other members of the Brave Software community-we need an auto-suggestion password generator built into the browser asap. As mentioned by @silvanet I too as well use this method with mostly using the lastpass.com/password-generator or switching to Safari, bc then after creating a new password I can store it in Keychain app and access it across all devices via the cloud.

Update: This feature is included in after I tested filling out a form and “right-clicking” on password field and once filled in a dialogue box appears with the message below.

**By the way I haven’t tested this on mobile yet.

It would seem to me, that having passwords to your bank accounts stored in a browser is fine, as long as there is an account associated with that browser, requiring you to login with a Brave Account Login Password, otherwise, anyone using your computer can steal your money. Other browsers have this feature; Brave Browser should also have this feature, in order to compete. I know, I’ll never use the Brave Browser for this reason, only. :roll_eyes:

I am pretty sure I’ve seen Brave ‘suggest’ passwords in the Password field. I think the feature is there but it just doesn’t seem to be 100% of the time. There must be some pattern to it. Am I crazy?

It’s already in Brave for so long but idk when chromium changed creating passwords(cuz o guess it’s not changed by brave but by chrome) From real stron password with symbol like $#@%@ into just password generator with numbers&letters small/big caps.

When You are on any site,on the left bottom corner You have a KEY ICON icon OR just Press the field on this site with “password”. So You have 2 ways to use it as You like

This is great feature I also suggested but more important is to show them by default when you load the page again… Right now it just load the username and not the saved password…

I believe this currently exists, but you have to right-click to get the option, and it doesn’t always appear. But I agree: I wish it were more automatic and consistent like Chrome.

I’m not sure what everyone is missing here.
Brave for Windows Desktop has had this feature for a long time. The only problem with it is that is doesn’t include any special characters (@, #, &, etc) and many websites won’t accept a password without one. So you then end up having to manually add a special character. Maxthon had a feature that allowed you to set the password parameters if necessary. Brave needs to add this (or even better, intelligently read the requirements from the webpage, and automatically generate a password meeting those requirements). But the feature is already there. I used it to create an account on this forum in order to make this post!
