I would like to generate a secure password from the about:logins page.

On some websites, the browser does not recognize the password field and therefore does not suggest a strong password. I also want to generate passwords for desktop apps, other devices etc.

Currently I have to navigate to a random website, pretend to create a new account, then copy the generated password.

Instead I would like to open the passwords manager and generate a new password from there.

 

There is already a button to create a new login in the passwords manager. I think that would be a perfect place to add this functionality.

Hey all,

Just wanted to let you know that we have a few bugs to implement things mentioned here:

Hmm. I looked at the link and it says last updated 4 months ago and it has a Priority of P3. So what effect did this idea process have? It seems like the idea was just acknowledged as something the devs already knew about and that's it. Is that pretty much what we should expect?

Nope, we have intent to make this happen. But I can not give any promises or ETA yet, we are looking for the ways we can squeeze extra work in without disrupting everything else.
