Hide my PIN when logging into Plex from a ROKU w/Harmony Remotes (Everyone See's My PIN When Logging In)

HI. I see several people posting about being able to discretely enter their PIN so that everyone in the room cannot see it. I figured i’d put in an enhancement request also.

When using a device like the ROKU with the Plex app and a Harmony remote… when you log into a managed profile with a PIN, one cannot do a direct number entry on their remote. Instead you need to select the numbers on the screen (which everyone can see) and then log in.

If my PIN is 1234… everyone in the room can see that i go to 1 first, then 2, then 3 and finally 4.

I wish this was more like Directv where i can press 1234 on my remote and it fills in the 4 numbers on the screen with asterisks. That way, NO ONE can see the code.

Again, I use a ROKU to access Plex on our living room TV. I use a Harmony 700 remote to control everything including the ROKU. I’ve used many other remotes over the years, and that’s never been a factor. Plex has always made me go to the number to select it.

Thanks.
