Interesting read. I think something that bothers me more than trying to remember passwords (I have a system) is when an app or website won't let you see what you've typed! It's so easy to make a typo, especially on a phone and nothing infuriates me more than that "wrong password" message popping up when I can't even view what letters/numbers I've typed in before hitting enter.

I still run into arbitrary password limitations (no special characters, 20 character max, etc). I go through the “reset password” process just to see what arcane rules I had to follow, which is enough to help me remember my password so I can log in.

I seriously have to reset passwords every 2-3 days for different websites AND I use a password manager. It's maddening and embarrassing and sometimes it feels like someone is playing a mean joke on me

This is one of the most misguided security features - in some cases in public places maybe. But anywhere else let me at least see what I’ve typed (or as the iPhone does show me at least the last character as I type it).

It's not ideal, but you can just open up your browser tools and change the input type from 'password' to 'text' so you can see what you're doing.

Tricky on a phone though... .

On iOS you can do this with an extension called Web Inspector. It’s quite literally what the name suggests, albeit more limited than its desktop counterparts.
