Can't create new App Specific Password

Can't create new App Specific Password - I have passcode enabled for site login - but when get to the final App specific password stage (asked to confirm password) the message box keeps telling me “incorrect password” - I know the password is correct because I keep a record of changes, it’s in the Apple Passwords App and I’ve also saved it in another password App - tried different browsers and still won’t work! Using iPhone 17 Max Pro iOS 27.0.1 and Safari and have less than 25 App Specific Passwords - Help!!

I think that there must be a limit of creating app-specific passwords so delete any unnecessary one and add a necessary one.

There is that’s why I stated how many had (I posted 25 but that’s a typo I actually have 22) but you need to enter the password, again, to delete one or more and again I face the wall of the “incorrect password” dialogue box - you need to enter your password to delete as well as create - thanks for the reply though!
