I used the mobile app for the first time in a while today and something I realised when I logged in was that I wasn’t prompted for any form of two-factor authentication, like I would be if I was logging in via my PC or even through a web-browser on mobile.
Now I understand that the mobile app has limited accessibility and someone in your account might not be able to cause complete havoc - but they could still spend ROBUX, leave groups and even more.
If someone gets my password, with two-factor authentication, I still have a level of security but via the app, you don’t. If someone knows your password, they can bypass two-factor authentication by logging in via the app.
Regardless of the accessibility through the mobile app, I believe it’s of the utmost importance that I still have the reassurance that my account is secure.
Does anyone else share this view? What are your opinions?
Please rename the thread to something like “use two-factor authentication when logging in via the mobile app”. Right now your title is confusing; you don’t want two-factor authentication to be handled by the mobile app (it should be handled by a generic 2FA/TOTP app), but the title makes it seem like you do.
@buildthomas Is correct. This is a feature request because I would like two-factor to be used on the mobile app. I’m not sure if it should be prompting two-factor. If it should be, it wasn’t working for me and if it shouldn’t be, I feel it should be.
