Great for security, terrible for UI
Reviewed on 31/05/2024
Pros
I think from a security standpoint it's brilliant, because the amount of times I've been stuck in a loop of not being able to log into my authenticator, because I need my authenticator to generate a code for me to access my authenticator, is countless.
Cons
The fact you get stuck in a catch 22 loop of needing the app to generate a code for you to get into the app. End up having to talk to IT all the time and get them to reset it. It's ridiculous.
