How do I hide password characters when typing

How do I hide password characters when typing, they show each character for about five seconds before disappearing. My android phone lets me completely hide characters, I don't see this option. Showing password is not security

You cant hide them. You should always be very careful when entering a password. Just make sure that nobody is looking over your shoulder. I know this isn't the answer that you're looking for, so please take it in the spirit in which it is intended.


I also suggest leaving feedback with Apple. Trust me when I say that you are not the first person that has ever asked about this.
