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.

- Hover-based tooltip on each character in case the colors are not enough
- Accessible color palette
