[PM-21675] Inconsistency: Only in the Android app it's not possible to type in the number of words (passphrase generator) #5205

Description

@pamperer562580892423

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Go to the Generator.
  2. Go to Passphrase.
  3. Then, you want to define the exact number of words, but there are only -/+ buttons.

Expected Result

I can type in the number of words AND use the -/+ buttons.

Actual Result

I can only use the -/+ buttons to define the number of words, which is
a) inconsistent with the other BW apps, where I can use up/down (-/+) buttons as well AND type in the exact number of words)
b) inconvenient --> fictitious example, but if you needed a 3-word-passhprase before and wanted a 20-word-passhprase now (or the other way round) it is very tedious to just use the -/+ buttons and not being able to just type in the number of words directly.

Additional Context

(I think I already included that in "Actual result"...)

PS: Maybe in the iOS app, the same inconsistency is also there?!
