Description from the creator

Web browser hide passwords under asterisk characters for improved security. Almost all web browsers like Firefox Google Chrome Internet Explorer Safari follow this security measure.Say you are on the Gmail login page and the web browser, as always, has auto-filled the username and passwords fields for you, if you saved them earlier.

This is convenient because you can sign-in to your account with a click but because you have not been typing these saved passwords for a while now, you don't even remember the Gmail password anymore.

All web browsers, for security reasons, mask the password fields in login forms behind asterisk characters thus making it impossible for passersby to see your secret string.

There's however an easy workaround that will let us convert those asterisks into the actual password and you don't need any external softwares or bookmarklets for this. Here's how.
