Creating a strong password

A strong password helps prevent someone else from accessing your information. Weak passwords, such as 1234, might be

easy to remember but they're easier to guess as well.

To create a strong password, avoid using a password with the following characteristics (in order of importance):

Avoid Example

Common passwords password

Words from a dictionary quarter

Combining words from a dictionary SimpleGraph

Names or addresses Cecilia

Adding numbers at the end of a word password145

The key is to create a strong password that you can remember easily. Consider the following tips:

Do Example

Use as many characters as you can remember –

Combine words from dierent languages ﬁeld of Kühe

Instead of: ﬁeld of cows

Mix character sets größere3 stre4gth

Use the ﬁrst letter from each word in a sentence Tqbfjotld

Instead of: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog

Combine misspelled words SimzleGarph

Instead of: SimpleGraph

Set up the ﬁngerprint scanner

The ﬁngerprint scanner provides a fast, convenient way to unlock your device, make purchases, or sign in to apps. When

you set up the ﬁngerprint scanner, you must also create a PIN, pattern, or password for times when your ﬁngerprint can't

be used.

CAUTION:

You can't use your ﬁngerprint to unlock your device when it restarts. Be sure to remember your PIN, pattern, or

password.

To see where your device's ﬁngerprint scanner is located, check out Your device at a glance.

1. Swipe down from the top of the screen once using two

ﬁngers, or twice using one ﬁnger.
