Is there a way to change the passcode for members account to something other than a pin code? Reason why i am asking is because my kids watch me unlock an account and you can easily watch what numbers the pin is. can we do say a directional pattern code or something where i hit a direction on my remote and it reads the direction so no one can see what you are entering?  
The Playstation has this to get into their individual locked accounts.  
Thank you!

I’ve had the same thought. Just look at how the PS4 does it for restricted accounts and steal UI for the PS4 Plex app. It works great, and my muscle memory lets me enter that code in less than a second.

Please intergrate the numbers on the keypad to work when entering in pin. This should be private.
