+# WordPress Application Passwords
+
+## What are Application Passwords
+
+WordPress Application Passwords are a valuable feature that enhances the security of your website while simplifying the
+process of connecting third-party services. Available for WordPress sites running version 5.6 or higher, Application
+Passwords empower users to generate unique and dedicated passwords specifically for integrating external applications.
+
+By implementing Application Passwords, WordPress provides an additional layer of security by ensuring that users don't
+need to share their main account credentials with external services. This means that even if one of the application
+passwords is compromised, the potential impact is limited to that specific service or application. It greatly reduces
+the risk of unauthorized access to the main account and safeguards sensitive data.
+
+Generating application passwords is a straightforward process, conveniently accessible from the Edit Profile screen.
+Users can easily create and manage their application passwords without the need for complex configurations or external
+plugins. This built-in functionality streamlines the integration of third-party services and allows users to maintain
+granular control over the permissions granted to each application.
+
+With WordPress Application Passwords, website owners and administrators can confidently expand the functionality of
+their sites by seamlessly connecting with trusted external services, such as mobile apps, plugins, or custom-developed
+applications. The simplified process ensures a smoother user experience and encourages secure and efficient
+integrations, reinforcing the overall security posture of WordPress-powered websites.
+
+## Application Password Format
+
+Application Passwords are 24 characters in length and generated using the wp_generate_password() function. These
+passwords do not contain special characters and consist only of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers. This
+combination provides over 142 bits of entropy, making them cryptographically secure.
+
+When presented to users for input in an application, the passwords are chunked and displayed in an easily readable
+format, like this:
+
+```text
+abcd EFGH 1234 ijkl MNOP 6789
+```
+
+Users can choose to include or exclude the spaces when entering the password into an application. If spaces are
+included, they will be stripped out before the password is hashed and verified.

+
+5. To generate your password, click on the "Add New Application Password" button. Remember to promptly copy and securely
+   store your password in a safe location, as application passwords cannot be recovered once you leave this screen. It
+   is strongly recommended to generate a separate application password for each app you connect with to maintain optimal
+   security.
