Password Generator is finally working!
Hey team,
The Password Generator test has been extended to more websites now! In Canary build 89.0.726.0, I was able to get the Password Generator working on a lot of websites now, though not all.
This is the feature in action:
In my test, I was not able to get the Generator popup on Reddit and Strava, so I think it is not available on all websites yet.
The team just needs to expand this to every website, and it will be a solid move for people generating strong passwords and forgetting about remembering it since Edge will save the passwords!

Thank you for sharing, in case it doesn't work in other websites make sure report those websites through feedback option in Microsoft Edge.

Reza_Ameri-Archived Thanks for the reply. I have shared the feedback with the team.

Great, they will be able to investigate and resolve the issue.

I don't think so. I don't think Edge team want people to flood their system with websites that have problem with password generator.
because that means everyone can send millions of feedbacks about the same thing, that is obvious. like I said it should detect input password types and not rely on any list whatsoever.
- I'm trying it on 2 popular platforms, Facebook and Discord, I'm not seeing any secure password suggestion..
it's not in inPrivate mode- Rohit YadavBronze Contributor
HotCakeX I see, haven't tried yet on Discord. On Facebook, it is enabled earlier. Maybe the test is changed now.
- Yeah it's far from working, I don't know whey they even have a list of websites, why not just use this feature on any field that has <input type="password">
that's the only time when this will actually work.
it also shouldn't care whether password sync is on or off.
- Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorJust a privacy note hope you are not using these passwords as you post them in the public forum and visible to everyone.
