Oh my god, I just thought my typing accuracy mysteriously dropped off at the Lock Screen.

My password is long enough that it’s not clear whether a new dot has appeared, but I get frequent rejections.






To be clear, I diagnosed the missing dot issue by typing very slowly and carefully. The issue appears in repeatable streaks for me. For instance, the second character of the password might be dropped. If I repeat this several times, typing very deliberately and slowly, I can see the behavior repeat: no response for second character. Two workarounds are to just backspace and try again until the behavior goes away, or just notice that a character was dropped and type it again.
