      I’m ready to send her my password because I heard that the app converts every password to ******** and I really want to try it out.

        If you’d like to do this, consider instead an odd phrase that would not be guessable. Using a a string of generated symbols means that if a customer service representative ever asks for it, “it’s probably a long string of random characters” will work to bypass it. On the other hand, if the color of your first car is “Albert Einsteins mustache” the service rep will be confused but unlikely to accept the wrong answer.
