I've run into this problem with setting up accounts on aps on my 
smartphone.  A secure password that is relatively easy to type on a 
regular keyboard becomes a PITA to type on a smartphone.  There are a 
number of sites I simply don't use on my phone because the hassle of 
setting up each site's ap is greater than the benefit I get from 
accessing it via the phone.
