What is this?

Certain characters in passwords ('O' and '0', 'I' and 'l', etc.) can be hard to identify when you need to type them in (and copy-paste is unavailable). Password Lense is a small web application that provides a quick and secure way to get a more informative view of your password.

Features

Color codes each character in your password with a corresponding legend/key
Hover-based tooltip on each character in case the colors are not enough
Accessible color palette
Light and dark modes
Monospace font for easy character identification
Core functionality works even when offline
Secure (your password never leaves your browser)
Pressing ESC clears the password (in case someone walks in unexpectedly)
Checks your password against those available in publicly disclosed data breaches (requires Internet connectivity)
Automatically checks for updates (requires Internet connectivity)

Run your own

Why?

Because a co-worker asked for it.
