Description

Expected behaviour

The label should not be cropped.

Actual behaviour

The label is unreadable:

Steps to reproduce
  • choose French language in your device settings app
  • activate lock in the app settings and choose a password
  • close then open the app, start typing your password
  • look the delete button, it should say "Supprimer" but is cropped.
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

I think this would look better

Alternative consideration

Apple use the word "Effacer" for the device password and not "supprimer". This word would be smaller, maybe better, and more coherent with iOS/iPadOS terminology.

iOS password:

Research direction

Start by reproducing the French lock-password screen described in the issue and inspect how the delete button label is localized and laid out. Compare “Supprimer” with the proposed “Effacer”; done means the French label is fully readable on the reported iPadOS version without disrupting the lock screen.
