10 Passcodes:Should NOT Use on Your iPhone


Daniel Amitay, the developer of the Big Brother Camera Security app, ran an interesting survey of his application’s users. He added some code to anonymously record passcodes of iPhone owners who use his application.

With this little test, Amitay was able to record 204,508 passcodes from as many devices, giving him the opportunity to find out what the most used passcodes are. If you are using any of these passcodes, you might want to change this right away in order to increase the safety of the information on your device…

The 10 most used iPhone passcodes are 1234, 0000, 2580, 1111, 5555, 5683, 0852, 2222, 1212, 1998.

Do you wonder why 5683 is in there? This passcode is not the result of a logical pattern like 1234, but it is the representation of “LOVE” on the keypad.

Interesting info, isn’t it?
