[Feature request] Picture Password
This is a feature that I hope would be available. Very easy to unlock screen and its seems more secure than inputing numbers/characters.

@foss4ever @wanderer I've checked this thread: https://together.jolla.com/question/59324/idea-lockscreen-code-input-method/ And imho all options presented there has got the same security issues as the basic pattern lock. I think the author asked for something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucpQ_0iHrWg Explanation: With latest Sailfish version Jolla implemented fingerprint support, while it's very handy it can be a problem under some circumastances as someone can force you to unlock your phone . Pin code is also not an option here as it's easy to spot just standing next to the phone owner or by a ccvt.
Picture password however doesn't have both of those problems. As you can't force someone to unlock his phone like with fingerprint, and also even standing next to the phone owner, you won't be able to repeat what the owner did.
Just checkout the link I've pasted and I'm voting for it.
A clever solution. Goes well with the gesture nature of Sailfish OS too.

vattuvarg ( 2018-07-07 12:52:35 +0300 )@vattuvarg for me it doesn't matter if those will be numbers or shapes. Just the whole idea is great. Yet I can understand that BlackBerry could patent this solution which may impose some future problems if Jolla would implement this.
lolek ( 2018-07-07 14:20:51 +0300 )The idea is indeed great. The symbols could be made smaller (and more subtle), thus making the unlocking easier and quicker. That's all. A Sailfish OS version of this lock could well be implemented now and added to openRepos.

Do you mean a feature like this Android app?
