User account pin / gamepad option

Hi,

Is it possible to add a feature for the user account pin. The problem with the pin is that kids can see exactly what you are typing which defeats the whole purpose of protecting an admin account. The only option is to ask them to turn away which is ridiculous.

Kodi has the option of using a ‘Gamepad button combo’ that I have successfully used for years. Please see link below:

I would be grateful if this could be considered.

Thanks

There’s an existing suggestion to support such an option on a PlayStation

There’s been a number of related suggestions over time, asking for better options to enter a PIN more secretly, e.g. using a mobile Plex app or the number buttons on a remote

Hi thanks for info. Hopefully it will get implemented.
