How does this even work?
Basically pick a number and a spot on the wallpaper. When you unlock the screen shows a bunch of numbers and you move it till your number fits the spot. Takes a second.
I've seen a few variations on password/pattern improvements, and this is the best one I've seen yet!
I remember this from my Playbook. Someone could watch you unlock your screen and still not know how to do it. It was really fast and easy.
Edit: I think it was from their QNX based OS. Not android.
Isn't it bruteforceable? I imagine you could simply use a robotic finger to give random inputs. Did it have any timeouts? Or a duration for you to keep the number on the spot?
After x tries, forces a pin similar to the biometric today
