I understand that voice control does not have the blind and visually impaired 
as its primary audience. However, a friend of mine has upgraded his phone and 
was playing around with voice control and rather likes it. This raised the 
question of whether it is possible to enter a passcode to open your phone using 
voice control. He was trying to enter it using his finger to type the numbers, 
and voiceover said that it was the wrong passcode. That was because other 
numbers then when he was typing were being entered because he had voice control 
on. He has a six digit passcode. But he was getting notices that after four 
numbers, he had the wrong passcode entered. So, I wonder if it is possible to 
simply dictate the passcode if you have a voice control on. He did try it by 
simply saying his passcode numbers one after the other, but that apparently 
didn’t do anything. So he turned voice control off, and was able to enter his 
code. Still, if you were in the right environment where you did not care if 
anyone overheard you, saying the numbers would be cool. Plus, I would think 
this would be a really good thing for the primary audience for whom voice 
control is intended, that is, people who can’t really use the touchscreen well. 
Wouldn’t you want a way to be able to enter your voice code using voice control?
