Review Summary
Users praise Secure Password Generator for its simplicity, configurability, and reliable password creation with flexible character rules. It's recognized as a must-have extension across browsers. However, some users desire bulk password generation, automatic clearing of generated passwords for security, and additional features like regex-based creation. MacOS stability issues and minor interface/link problems were reported but not widespread. Overall, it offers a fast, effective password generation experience appreciated by many users.
