   Hello Jay!

   I don't participate in any 2FA, so I don't need to deal with it     
   too much, except that my MBNA credit card accounts force 2FA     
   where upon the code gets sent to my choice of Text SMS or a     
   phone call.  I most often pick the latter.  So.. I don't     
   understand why you couldn't receive you auth code via SMS to     
   any phone device you choose.
