When you create a backup with a password, Hasleo prompts in red that the password is weak until it is a certain length. That is helpful for security.

When you do a restore, it also displays the red text that the password is weak until a certain number of characters are entered. That almost seems like a hint and is not necessary or good for security. I am guessing it is part of the code that creates a password and was carried over to the restore code too?

It's a very minor thing, but users should not think the program is trying to help them guess a password. If I thought my friends password was the name of one of their 2 dogs, Max or Maggie, and I entered the name of the name dog Max, it appears Hasleo will alert me that Max is not enough characters, and  I would try the other name.

Thanks.

Thanks for pointing out the issue and we'll improve it.

HBS requires a minimum password length of 6, and it will only prompt "The password is too short" if the password length is less than 6, and it will not prompt if it is greater than or equal to this length, so there does not seem to be any problem.
