When I installed fastmail app on my iphone, I found a link in the app 
“applications setings and guides” or something similar.  I tapped it and 
started reading through the various instructions and guides. One of them was on 
how to set up fastmail for iphone.  It’s there I found the link to download 
profile, which once installed generated the right password for fastmail.

Good luck
