Steps To Reproduce

When creating a password within the app, you have formatting that lets you see what the password consists of. The current formatting shows symbols as red and numbers as blue (see photo 4). I really like that and that small feature really helps. It works great if you are creating a new password using the generator inside the app. However, I have noticed that if you use the popup tool that allows you to login on a web-browser the formatting is not the same. Using the generator that is embedded in the popup leads to different formatting (see picture 3).

Expected Result

I would expect that the formatting should be the same across image 3 and 4. The formatting in image 3 should match how it is in image 4. I like how it is in image 4 and would expect that the formatting in image 4 should be how it is in image 3 as well.

Actual Result

I really like how it formats the password in picture 4, however when creating a new password in the way detailed in images 1-3 (which BTW is just an example and obviously not my real password) the formatting is striped, leaving the password all black.
