Why/User Benefit/User Problem

Passwords are currently difficult to view. This is a hassle when having to enter passwords by hand on, say, a computer.

Ideally, Lockwise would implement a legible view feature similar to 1Password, which offers an option to display a password in large, multicolored letters.

Note that punctuation, letters, and numbers have distinct colors, which greatly enhances legibility.

Note also that this "Large Type" feature is separate from the Reveal functionality, which simply reveals the password in the control similar to what Lockwise does already. However, in 1Password's case, even the revealed password is still color-highlighted.

Acceptance Criteria (how do I know when I’m done?)

Even simply incorporating a color-coding scheme (and line-wrapping!) similar to 1Password into the existing control would greatly enhance legibility.
