I horrified to admit it was in 2015. It's he sort of thing that's easily put off, I mean I've got 2FA/2SV not that we really have any choice any more which is a good thing.
So, it's easy to get slack but a recent major security beach of the second largest Telco in Australia a week back made me sit up an think.
The good news is it's not all that difficult. I performed the process online using Safari on my MBP but it can be done on iPad, iPhone or Mac.
You get the option to log out of all your other devices and it's a simple matter to follow the prompts to log back in on each device.
I did run into one little catch with my Apple Watch (AW). After signing in on my iPhone my AW asked that I sign in with my new password as well. I was stumped for a few minutes until I realised I could type into the AW using the iPhone keyboard. Of course until I picked up my iPhone I didn't realise that was an option. I didn't have an AW in 2015.
Bottom line, took me about half an hour including creating an App Specific Password for my Apple email address/calendar on Spark.
