If you use advanced authentication and your BlackBerry
smartphone password or smart card password is numeric, you might be able to use smart
password entry in some password fields. When smart password entry is turned on, your
smartphone is designed to remember the format of a password that you type in a password
field. When you type the password again, your smartphone applies a smart password filter
to the password field. If the password is
numeric, a 123 indicator appears beside the password field and you do not have to
press the 
key
to type numbers. If the password is
alphanumeric, an ABC indicator appears beside the password field.
To use smart password entry, advanced authentication must be turned on and the correct smart card driver and smart card reader must be installed on your smartphone.
