Large type

Large type displays a field value in large, distinct characters so you can read a secret aloud or type it into another device — such as a phone, a TV, or a console.

Show a value as a large type

Pick Show in Large Type on a field or value. It’s available on passwords, URLs, send values, generated values from the generator history, and account fields — anywhere a field menu appears.

On mobile, Show in Large Type and Lock vault displays the value and locks the vault at the same time — useful when handing your phone to someone to type a password.

Large type only offers itself for values up to 128 characters.

How it works

  • Each character is shown large and on its own, numbered in sequence.
  • Tap a character to mark your position — that character and every one before it is highlighted, so you can track how far you’ve read.
  • When the value supports it, characters are colour-coded by class: digits in one colour, symbols in another, and letters in the default colour.
  • The screen stays awake while large type is open.
