Solution!
Use your device's Voice Over feature to read for you. It recognizes your finger's gestures on the screen. Just double tap to select and use three fingers to scroll.

Tips and Tricks For Your Device [Passcode Lock]

PART of the fun of a high-end, tech device is learning all that it can do! Many of us love to explore and discover cool functions on our own, while others may prefer to read a manual.

Tips and Tricks For Your Device may teach you something new, or remind you of a neat function you've forgotten about!

TODAY'S TIP:

Question?
You like your phone locked - no snoopers allowed! Yet the 4 numeric digits just don't seem enough to guard all your phone's secrets. How can you increase the length of your passcode?

Solution!
Go to Settings/Passcode Lock and enter your current passcode if you have one. If you want a more elaborate and lengthy passcode, toggle the Simple Passcode bar OFF. You will then be able to enter a new alphanumeric code in its place as a keyboard will appear complete with a textbox for your new entry.
