How to See the Password You Typed on a Website on a Mac

What you need: A Mac, a website's sign-in page open in your browser, and the password you will type. These steps need an eye symbol or the word Show at the right end of the password box.

Before you begin: The letters of your password will show on the screen. Make sure nobody else can see it.

1. Click inside the password box. A thin blinking line (the text cursor) appears in it.
2. Type your password. Each letter shows as a dot, which is normal.
3. Click the eye symbol at the right end of the box (or the word Show). The letters you typed appear.
4. Look at each letter. If one is wrong, click immediately after it, press the delete key once (at the top-right of the main keys, often marked with a left-pointing arrow) to delete it, and type the right letter.
5. Click the eye symbol (or the word Hide) again. The letters show as dots again.

Expected result: You checked the password you typed, and it shows as dots again.
