Why five digits for device lock? [duplicate]
asked 2015-03-09 18:56:09 +0300
I have always had four numbers in my previous phones (Android). It's a little more natural since all debit or credit card has four numbers.

ssahla ( 2015-03-09 19:00:45 +0300 )Nokia phones used to have minimum of five digits for device lock and many (most of?) sailors are ex-Nokia :)
TemeV ( 2015-03-09 19:18:43 +0300 )Probably so people can't use their SIM-cards PIN-code as their locking code?
avhakola ( 2015-03-09 19:34:55 +0300 )@ssahla - Thanks, I searched for device lock therefore didn't see it. Relax security code, is that an old Nokia title?
@TemeV - Maybe it would be good to cut old ties to Nokia and get a fresh start.
Onyx ( 2015-03-09 19:37:15 +0300 )@avhakola - my SIM PIN-code has always been 5 digits long and so can yours
The thing that bothers me with the device lock is that I need to click the Open button once I've entered the code. It should be like on Windows Phones and auto-open once a correct code has been entered.
