alphabetic passcode about pinfinder HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi!

Sorry for the late answer.

It's not true that screen time doesn't allow an alphabetic passcode, pinfinder gave me a word (check bellow).

Also, this video shows an alphanumeric keyboard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Q-_Fhifxg

If you can help, I would apretiate it!
Thanks

There are two passcodes - one to unlcok the device itself so you can use it - this passcode can be variable length or alpha numeric

The other passcode is the restrictions or screen time passcode, which is used to restrict access to certain features of the phone - That passcode is always (and can only be) 4 digits. They are separate from each other.

Thank you for your prompt answer.

I understand what you are saying. But when I chose a password for screen time, the keyboard was alphanumeric and i chose a word. Now, the keyboard appears in numbers (see photo ) and I can't insert the word.
Is there a way to open/ access a alphanumeric keyboard in screen time?

Apple has never supported using anything other than a 4 digit number for screen time; i think you must be mis-remembering

closing this out; pinfinder did not given you a word - the text just rapped to the next line - pinfinder stated "need encrypted backup" - If you follow the instructions at https://pinfinder.net/, it willl tell you how to make an encrypted backup and you can try again.

To state it again - Passcodes are always 4 digits; the alphanumeric keyboard does not indicate you can enter anything other than digits.

You are right :)
Thank you for saving my day!

Kind regards
