Symbol rules

How to choose symbols that a website will accept

A symbol requirement sounds simple, but many forms accept only a small subset of punctuation. This page is for cases where the site asks for a special character and still rejects some generated passwords.

Copy the allowed symbol list

If the form lists allowed symbols, enter that exact list in Custom allowed symbols. This prevents the generator from using punctuation that looks valid but fails validation.

Set a minimum symbol count

Some policies require more than one special character. Use Advanced rules to set the minimum symbol count instead of regenerating until the result happens to include enough punctuation.

Avoid editing by hand

Manually adding a symbol at the end can create a predictable pattern. It is better to let the generator place required symbols randomly across the password.

Do not trade length for punctuation

Symbols help satisfy a rule, but length still does much of the security work. When the site allows it, keep the password long even after adding special characters.

Before submitting

  • Check whether the site names allowed symbols.
  • Set minimum symbol count if the policy requires it.
  • Keep uppercase, lowercase, and numbers enabled unless the form says otherwise.
  • Save the final password in a password manager after the form accepts it.

FAQ

Which symbols can this password generator use?

You can keep the default symbol set or enter only the special characters accepted by a specific website.

Can I require more than one symbol?

Yes. Open Advanced rules and set the minimum symbol count required in every generated password.

Are passwords generated on the server?

No. Password generation runs locally in your browser with the Web Crypto API.
