Code memo
Instead of having to remember all the different security codes for credit cards, for example, you can save them in the code memo in your phone. Then all you need to remember is the passcode to open the code memo. You can save a maximum of 10 codes in the code memo.
Checkword and security
To confirm that you have entered the correct passcode for the code memo and to prevent unauthorized access to your codes, you must enter a checkword.
When you enter your passcode to open the code memo, the checkword is shown for a short time. If the passcode is correct, the correct codes are shown. If you enter the incorrect passcode, the checkword and the codes that are shown are also incorrect. Factors strengthening the security of the code memo function are:
•You get no feedback about whether the passcode is correct, except for the checkword, and only you know the checkword.
•All codes are encrypted in the phone.
•When you access your codes, they are shown for a limited time only.
