Apple Passwords’ Generated Strong Password Format | Ricky Mondello, Apple:

To make these passwords easier to type on suboptimal keyboard layouts like my colleague’s game controller, where the mode switching might be difficult, these new passwords are actually dominated by lowercase characters. And to make it easier to short-term have in your head little chunks of it to bring over to the other device, the passwords are based on syllables. That’s consonant, vowel, consonant patterns. With these considerations put together, in our experience, these passwords are actually a lot easier to type on a foreign, weird keyboard, in the rare instances where that might be needed for some of our users.

As someone who owns 2 Nintendo Switches and a Steam Deck, I appreciate the effort Apple engineers put into designing the password generation feature. It’s a small thing that affects people every day.
