TaskMate's free online random password generator tool TaskMate's Random Password Generator β€” free, fast, and secure.

Weak passwords are still the number one cause of data breaches. Despite years of warnings, millions of people continue to use passwords like "123456", "password", and "qwerty" to protect their most sensitive accounts. A random password generator eliminates human bias and creates passwords that are genuinely difficult to crack.

This page is your central hub for all of TaskMate's free password generator tools. Whether you need a general-purpose random password, a password tailored to Apple ID requirements, or a way to check whether your current password is strong enough, you will find the right tool below.

1. Why You Need a Password Generator

Humans are predictably bad at creating passwords. Studies consistently reveal alarming patterns:

  • Over 80% of data breaches involve weak or reused passwords, according to industry security reports.
  • The most commonly used password worldwide remains "123456", followed closely by "password" and "123456789".
  • The average person has over 100 online accounts but reuses the same handful of passwords across most of them.
  • A simple 8-character password using only lowercase letters can be cracked in under a minute by modern hardware.
  • Credential stuffing attacks β€” where hackers try leaked username/password pairs across other websites β€” succeed precisely because people reuse passwords.

A password generator solves this problem by producing passwords that are truly random. No dictionary words, no personal details, no predictable patterns. Each password is unique, and the randomness makes it exponentially harder for attackers to guess or brute-force.

2. What Makes a Good Password Generator

Not all password generators are created equal. Before you trust a tool with your security, check that it meets these criteria:

Criteria Why It Matters
Cryptographic randomness The generator should use a cryptographically secure random number generator (CSPRNG), not a basic Math.random() call. This ensures passwords cannot be predicted.
Customisation options You should be able to control password length and choose which character types to include β€” uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Different platforms have different requirements.
Client-side generation Passwords should be generated entirely in your browser. If a tool sends your password to a server, it introduces unnecessary risk. A good generator works offline after the page loads.
No password storage The generator should never store, log, or transmit the passwords it creates. Once you copy your password and close the page, it should be gone from the tool's memory.
No account required You should not need to sign up, provide an email, or download an app to generate a password. The best generators are instant and free.
Mobile-friendly With more people managing accounts on their phones, the generator should work perfectly on mobile browsers β€” including Safari on iOS and Chrome on Android.

TaskMate's password generators meet every one of these criteria. All passwords are generated client-side using the Web Crypto API, nothing is stored or sent to our servers, and every tool works on both desktop and mobile browsers.

5. iOS Password Generator Alternative

If you are looking for an iOS password generator, you do not need to download an app. TaskMate's password generators work perfectly in mobile Safari on iPhone and iPad, as well as Chrome, Firefox, and other iOS browsers.

Here is why TaskMate is a great alternative to iOS's built-in password suggestions:

  • Full customisation β€” Apple's built-in password suggestions give you one option with no way to adjust length or character types. TaskMate lets you control every aspect of your password.
  • No Apple ecosystem lock-in β€” Passwords generated through Apple's Keychain are synced via iCloud and work best on Apple devices. TaskMate works on any device with a browser β€” iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, or Linux.
  • Works anywhere β€” Apple only suggests passwords in certain sign-up flows. TaskMate is available whenever you need it, at taskmate.digital.
  • Platform-specific options β€” Need a password specifically for your Apple ID, Google account, or Instagram? TaskMate has dedicated generators that meet each platform's exact requirements.

To use TaskMate on your iPhone, simply open Safari and navigate to any of our password generator tools. Bookmark the page for quick access whenever you need to create a new password. You can also read our guide on suggesting strong passwords for more tips.

6. Generating Passwords is Only Half the Battle

A strong password is worthless if you cannot remember it β€” or worse, if you write it on a sticky note attached to your monitor. The reality is that once you start using unique, random passwords for every account, you need a system to manage them.

Here is the problem most people face:

  • You generate a strong 20-character password for your email.
  • You generate another one for your bank.
  • And another for social media, streaming services, work tools, shopping sites, and more.
  • Within a week, you have 10+ unique passwords that no human could memorise.

This is exactly why password managers exist. They store all your passwords in an encrypted vault that you unlock with a single master password. You only need to remember one password β€” the manager handles the rest.

Without a password manager, people inevitably fall back into bad habits: reusing passwords, simplifying them, or storing them in insecure places like browser-saved notes or spreadsheets. A password manager breaks this cycle.

7. Store Generated Passwords with NordPass

We recommend NordPass as the ideal companion to TaskMate's password generators. Here is why:

  • XChaCha20 encryption β€” Your passwords are encrypted with one of the most advanced algorithms available, the same standard used by leading security organisations.
  • Cross-platform sync β€” Access your passwords on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux. Unlike Apple Keychain, it is not locked to one ecosystem.
  • Auto-fill β€” NordPass automatically fills in your usernames and passwords on websites and apps, so you never need to type them manually.
  • Data breach scanner β€” Get alerts if any of your saved passwords appear in a known data breach, so you can change them immediately.
  • Zero-knowledge architecture β€” NordPass cannot see your passwords. Only you can decrypt your vault with your master password.

The workflow is simple: generate your password with TaskMate, then save it in NordPass. Every account gets a unique, strong password, and you never have to remember any of them.

Longer passwords are exponentially harder to brute-force. Use our password strength checker to test yours.

Absolutely. Reusing passwords is one of the biggest security risks. If one service suffers a data breach, attackers use those leaked credentials to try logging into other services β€” a technique called credential stuffing. Use a password generator to create a unique password for each account and store them in a password manager.

A password generator creates new, random passwords. A password manager securely stores, organises, and auto-fills those passwords across your devices. You need both: a generator like TaskMate to create strong passwords, and a manager like NordPass to remember them so you do not have to.
