Human-Readable Passphrase Generator

Human-Readable Passphrase Generator
Create strong, secure, human-friendly passphrases instantly — right in your browser. One click generates and copies a unique passphrase that’s cryptographically random, easy to read, and easy to type — yet still meets modern security standards.

Why This Extension Exists
Most password generators spit out hard-to-read gibberish or cryptic strings that are easy to mistype and hard to remember. This extension is different: it uses short, common English words separated by clear, visually distinct symbols so that each password is:

Secure — generated with real cryptographic randomness

Readable — no confusing character jumble

Customizable — quickly adapt to any website’s password rules

Whether you’re setting up a new account, rotating your passwords, or need to generate dozens for work, this tool lets you do it faster and more comfortably without sacrificing security.

Core Features
1. One-Click Generate & Copy
The primary action is ultra-simple:

Click Generate & Copy — get a brand new passphrase and have it instantly copied to your clipboard.

Paste directly into your site or password manager.

A quick “Copied!” toast confirms it worked.

2. Inline Customization Controls
Right under the Generate button, you’ll find sliders and toggles for every key variable:

Min/Max Length: Choose any length from 6 to 128 characters

Min/Max Words: Control the number of words used

Separators: Enter your preferred symbols (space-separated, e.g. - _ . ~ + = ! ? % ^)

Include Digits: Append or prepend random digits

Lowercase Only: Toggle between lowercase or TitleCase words

Avoid Look-Alikes: Skip characters like O/0 and l/1 to prevent confusion

Allow Repeats: Choose whether the same word can appear twice in a passphrase

Changes save instantly — no extra clicks required — so you can quickly adapt to site-specific rules.

3. Secure by Design
Real randomness via crypto.getRandomValues() — not predictable pseudo-random

Optional exclusion of look-alike characters to prevent copy/paste errors

Generates passwords locally in your browser — nothing is sent over the internet

4. Built for the Real World
Works offline after install

Compatible with password managers — paste directly into Bitwarden, 1Password, LastPass, or your secure notes

Can generate for strict portals with very specific requirements — just adjust the sliders

Example Use Cases
For Everyday Accounts

Generate something like: Drum%Apple=7Mint — strong yet readable

For Strict Work Portals

Adjust sliders for exact length

Toggle digits on

Restrict separators to @ # $ % if needed

For Diceware-Style Security

Disable digits, enable lowercase only

Use 4–5 words for high entropy

For Shared Keys or Codes

Make them easy to dictate verbally:
"Drum-Duck-Candle-Rope"

Quick Start
Install from the Chrome Web Store.

Click the extension icon in your toolbar.

Hit Generate & Copy — paste into your desired field.

Adjust sliders/toggles to meet site requirements.

Done!

Advanced Tips
Set Lowercase Only ON for faster typing on mobile.

Keep Avoid Look-Alikes ON when sharing passwords verbally.

For maximum security, increase Min Words to 5 and Max Length to at least 30.

Change your separators to something unique for different categories (e.g., + for financial, ~ for personal).

Privacy & Security
This extension:

Does not log, transmit, or store your generated passphrases anywhere online.

Saves your settings only to Chrome’s sync storage so your preferences follow you between devices.

Requires only two permissions:

"storage" — to remember your preferences.

"clipboardWrite" — to copy generated passphrases.

Has no host permissions — it can’t read your web pages, browsing history, or keystrokes.

Why It’s Safer Than Many Generators
Many web-based generators require loading from a remote server, meaning the code could change without you knowing. This extension runs entirely from your installed copy. The generator code doesn’t fetch anything online, and randomness comes from your device’s secure RNG.

Accessibility
Large, readable fonts in the passphrase display.

High-contrast UI elements for visibility.

No flashing animations or distracting effects.

Works fully via keyboard navigation (Tab to Generate button, Enter to generate, Tab to sliders/toggles to adjust).
