User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:70.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/70.0
Steps to reproduce:
Tried signing up for an account on a website.
Actual results:
I was trying to sign up for a website, and I used a firefox auto-generated password. The website threw a notification saying the complexity is not enough and there need to be some symbols as per the password requirements
Expected results:
Lockwise auto-generated password doesn't meet the password requirements for a few websites. There are no symbols in the auto-generated password, which is a must for a bunch of websites. This is necessary and needs to implemented

We are aware of this but there are also some sites which disallow such characters so there isn't a perfect solution. This is why we allow the user to easily add symbols to the password after generation and we will automatically save those additions.

If we check the regular expression or password requirement before generating the password, we can solve this.

Yes, assuming the site uses the pattern attribute or setCustomValidity() which most sites don't.
