        @cibersheep oh yes just noticed that, thx 😉

        [EDIT]:
        What can be weird is that if "4-digit passcode" item is already selected, having to tap on it again to change the pin code prompt.

          I love this project so much. 😍

          I use fingerprint unlocking on the OP 5t; it works most of the time. When it fails, the standard pincode/passphrase unlock comes up. I would love it if I could use fingerprint with this new option as a fallback instead. It's just so cool.

            @cibersheep Aside from that, there is something need to be reworked because actually if you want to change the password/pincode, you need to switch to another option and then back again.
            That option list is maybe not the right component to use.
            We should have the "change password" action possible for the password and pin code.

            I'm a bit stuck how i can handle the above pin code prompt choice with what you said. If you have any mockup, it would be great.

              I would be interested in a feature that allows the numbers to be hidden from view (optionally). Maybe they can be shown if the first try fails? Some of us remember numbers well, others are good with patterns...

                @moem i need to see the impact on storing such custom parameters and if it is recommended.
                But your wish is fully understandable 😉

                      That's where I would go to change it. Now, even if it has ... it does nothing if already selected.

                      But I see the fingerprints are on the main Security view. Let me make a mockup and let's see if we can find a consistent solution here 🙂

                        Oh, I thought showing the pin was only for the test app to know if that worked.
                        I don't think is a good idea to have a visible pin code. Or I missed the joke?

                          This was intentional, the idea was to provide a "test" screen just to be familiar with it in system settings. But i agree, on other platforms, you don't have a "tester", when you choose "pattern", you are asking to create/modify the the pattern.

                          Here we are in special case where users still define its pin code with keyboard. And i would like users just to choose between default pin code prompt or the "clock" one. Maybe the "tester" is not needed ? And just let user discover it at login time.

                            Maybe the option can be added directly in the lock screen. Some kind of a button to switch between modes on the fly. Also, would be great if it also support keyboard input for convergence 😄

                              @kugiigi yes that could be an option.
                              Humm in my previous test keyboard was working, but maybe not in the demo ?

                                and this is a very good point

                                  I'm not thinking of other platforms 😉 but having the pin code exposed all time. I thought the pin in the test screen was just for testing purpose, not going in system settings

                                  Here we are in special case where users still define its pin code with keyboard. And i would like users just to choose between default pin code prompt or the "clock" one. Maybe the "tester" is not needed ? And just let user discover it at login time.

                                  This is interesting. Maybe what we want to do is detach the pattern from pin (is that possible? You know the code) as a new form of security code (like fingerprints or passphrase). That could make it on its own, simplify the UI but it would need a way to access via mouse or keyboard

                                    So you mean having a list of items like this:

                                    Swipe (no security)...
                                    4-digit passcode
                                    4-digit passcode clock prompt
                                    Passpharse...

                                    And click on "4-digit passcode clock prompt" ,would bring you to another page, with a way to create a pin code via the clock ?

                                              Just tried the demo from the OpenStote.

                                              Looks good, works well. Bonus points for giving us a working tester to try it on, nice work.🙂
