- x0054 11y agoThere is no pattern password in iOS. It's only a numerical or long form password.
- mikeash 11y agoThere's no built-in feature that lets you use a simple passcode after the initial unlock. Touch ID ends up working like this, where your fingerprint takes the place of that simple passcode. But for people who don't want to use a fingerprint, you're stuck using the same passcode or passphrase for each unlock.
