RE: 2 Factor Authentication w/ Encrypted Backup and Device Sync - Bye Bye Google Authenticator

in #security7 years ago

and no recovery option if you lose your phone

the recovery option is sms text message to new phone with same number, get a new sim from phone provider and works fine

Sort:  

As a result, starting next week, SMS two-step verification users on Google will see an invitation to try out the new system, although anyone with a security key will not. On Android the system is built-in, but iOS device users will need to have the Google Search app installed.

i guess it is not available to all users idk
