About ShowPassword
๐ See What You're Typing, Instantly
Have you ever deleted your entire password just because you couldn't tell where the typo was? Or pasted the wrong password and had to start over?
ShowPassword eliminates that frustration entirely. Just hover your cursor over any password field, and it instantly becomes readable โ no clicks, no eye-icons, no extra steps.
โจ Why You'll Love It
โก Lightning Fast โ Hover to reveal, move away to hide. That's it. Zero friction.
๐ข Visual Feedback โ A subtle green outline gently highlights the active field so you always know when your password is visible.
๐ Works Everywhere โ Engineered for modern web apps. Fully compatible with dynamic SPAs (React, Vue, Angular), Shadow DOM, and legacy websites alike.
๐ Privacy First โ No data collection. No tracking. No external requests. Your passwords never leave your browser.
๐ชถ Ultra Lightweight โ Pure vanilla JavaScript with zero dependencies. Won't slow down your browsing.
๐ฏ Smart Detection โ Automatically identifies password fields even when websites try to disguise them.
๐ฑ๏ธ How It Works
Navigate to any website with a password field.
Hover your mouse over the password input.
The password becomes instantly readable with a soft green highlight.
Move your cursor away โ it reverts back to hidden.
No toggles. No context menus. No learning curve. Just move your mouse.
โ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this safe to use?
A: Absolutely. ShowPassword only modifies how the password field appears visually in your browser. It never stores, reads, or transmits your passwords anywhere. The change is purely cosmetic and client-side.
Q: Does it work on the Chrome Web Store login?
A: Unfortunately, Chrome prohibits extensions from running on the Chrome Web Store and Chrome settings pages for security reasons. But it works on virtually every other website.
Q: Will this break website styling?
A: No. The green outline is applied using CSS outline โ which sits outside borders and doesn't affect the page layout at all.
Q: Does it work with password managers?
A: Yes! Works seamlessly alongside Bitwarden, LastPass, 1Password, Apple Keychain, and Google Password Manager.
