New feature in iOS4 - complex passcode

Feeling a bit insecure about your 4-digit passcode lock for your iPhone? Too easy to guess? Fear not! The iOS4 has a new feature to make your passcode more complex. The downside to this is that you'll need to really remember your complex passcode!

If you're up to the challenge,

   1. Tap on the [Settings] icon
   2. Then select [General] > [Passcode Lock]
   3. Enter your current passcode if it's enabled
   4. At the Passcode Lock screen, slide the [Simple Passcode] from ON to OFF
   5. You'll be asked to key in your old passcode again, so just do it.
   6. After that you will be asked to key in your new complex passcode. Notice the change in keyboard.

   7. Key in your new complex passcode twice and you're done! In this case I keyed in "hello".

Do you feel more secure with this complex passcode feature?
