Random Word Generator

This app generates randomly selected words from your choice of large dictionaries and text corpora. Its inspiration was xkcd's comic "Password Strength", and by Diceware.

By using a large dictionary with over 28,000 entries, a randomly selected word will have nearly 14.8 bits of entropy. A phrase made up of 6 words will have over 88.6 bits of entropy, more than enough for a very strong password.

This app uses multiple word lists from different sources, which can be chosen from the Settings screen.

The random number generator is cryptographically secure, using java.security.SecureRandom and /dev/urandom.

It does what it says (though choosing random words from a list seems more like a programming exercise than an "app" 😉). Contrary to the description, I do NOT recommend using plain English words to make passwords—they're the first thing the "bots" try. It's a much better idea to use a unique string of random letters, numbers and other characters for each of your passwords (so memorizing a few random words is moot anyway, right?). Try Steve Gibson's free online random password generator page!

No option for a single word length (eg. if you set both minimum and maximum word length to 5, you will get words that are 4 or 5 letters long). Otherwise decent, but no use to me due to that issue.

I preferred the older version of this app. This app contains more bugs, it's constantly buffering.

Can't control amount of words or what type of words like nouns.
