Yeah, but passphrases don’t require switching keyboards as often in mobile. And if you’re using a 16 character P@s5w0R6, a 50 character passphrase can be just as secure.

What I can’t stand if when I’m prompted to type a password on my Apple TV and can’t use my phone for some reason. Scrolling across the alphabet for a passphrase is torture.

My work switched our passwords from minimum 8 digits of upper, lower, numeric and special (requires all 3 present) to a passphrase.

Now its 21 minimum but requires upper, lower and numeric. I guess at least I don't have to stick an exclamation on the end.
