Apple Watch and Alphanumeric or complex passcodes

Will Apple introduce the ability to enter an Alphanumeric or complex passcode on the watch to allow us to unlock it without the phone being available?

Hi


To use a longer passcode:


On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Passcode > turn off Simple Passcode.


I'm afraid that no-one here can tell you anything about Apple's unannounced plans in respect of any other passcode options - this is a user-based technical support community.


If you would like to submit a feature request to Apple, then you can do so here:
