@maxmini1 Thanks, but your screenshot shows the general "Generator tab" - and that looks the same for me now already (so in the general "Generator" tab I also have the option to choose between password, passphrase and username).

Please read my "steps to reproduce" again, since it wasn't about the general "Generator tab". If you try to add a new vault item and open the generator from there - right from the "password" field - then there is no option to change to passphrases for me. If that was changed with the 2024.11.3, that would be nice - but I don't see a corresponding pull request in the changelogs since the 2024.10.2. Maybe you can check that?

(BTW I didn't update to 2024.11.3 already because I wanted to wait for the official PlayStore updates now because of the accessibility / quick tile feature which - as I just learned these days - doesn't work with a manual update via the apk.)

@maxmini1 Thanks, but your screenshot shows the general “Generator tab” - and that looks the same for me now already (so in the general “Generator” tab I also have the option to choose between password, passphrase and username). Please read my "steps to reproduce" again, since it wasn't about the general "Generator tab". If you try to add a new vault item and open the generator from there - right from the “password” field - then there is no option to change to passwords for me.

@pamperer562580892423 : i see its my fault, the issue its still there in the new releases

Quick thing here is that the new accessibility/quick tiles feature works perfectly at least for me!
