Emoji Passcode: Now Allows Users To Online Banking Via Emoji PIN
For Android banking app, the company is using a set of 44 emoji's. As a result, there are 480 more permutations than is possible with a four-digit PIN. Unlike numeric passwords, such as a birth or wedding date, the emoji-PIN is not easy to figure out. According memory expert Tony Buzan is a password consisting of smilies ideally suited for people corpse memory, just very well able to remember images. "We remember more information in picture form, which is why a emoji PIN better than a traditional PIN."
The emoji passcode system was launched following research, which showed that most of the people in the UK find it hard to remember numerical passcodes.
