DESCRIPTION

Creating a "strong complex" password on a computer then trying to type it on glass (smartphone) is a miserable user experience. For example, I create a complex password for a bank account. I download the bank's app on my phone. I don't stay logged in to my bank account on my phone so every time I use the app on my phone I have to re-tap-type my complex password. A typical "strong complex" password, length 8, created on a computer usually takes 15-20 taps to type it on a smartphone and is prone to error and mistakes. Reduce the misery of tap-typing on glass and create a password that works for your phone. Related blog post: http://leannewaldal.com/2013/06/30/typing-on-glass-2/
