Account labels

How account labels create unique passwords

One private phrase can produce separate credentials because the account label becomes part of the deterministic input.

A different label creates a different output

Labels such as google, netflix, and work-email produce different credentials even when the phrase and PIN remain unchanged.

Choose a naming convention

Pick one format and keep it stable. For example, use lowercase service names and add a purpose only when needed: amazon-shopping, amazon-seller, or google-work.

Avoid these mistakes

See the full account-label guide for a more detailed naming system.
