iPhone - how to Make the Access Code More Secure

iPhone allows setting an access code that ensures that only we will be able to access the data that is available in our devices. Apple requires the setting of a 4 or 6-digit access code for the iPhone or iPad, and to enter it we have a special interface with a dialer in which we must enter the numbers used to form the access code.

Now if you've ever wondered how you can make this passcode more secure, well a tweak called DummyPass helps us do that very quickly. The DummyPass tweak is designed to change the position of the digits in the dialer to enter the access code, so that a person who knows our access code can no longer enter it to access the data from the terminals.

DummyPass changes the position of the digits in the dialer, but only from a graphical point of view, because from a functional point of view, their normal position will remain unchanged. As you can see in the image below, the dialer has the same functionality, although the graphics are changed, and thus it generates confusion for people who do not know that it is used for additional security.

"Order passcode numbers randomly but keep the same functionality! So if your passcode is 5555 you don't click number 5 anymore but whatever is on the place of 5. No options to configure."

DummyPass is available for download from Cydia's BigBoss repo.
