I’ve not come across this yet, but then I haven’t got a Facebook account or Twitter or anything like that. I do have WhatsApp on my phone and even. Find that annoying. Suppose you could call me an anti social media person.

It is very similar, but has some distinct differences. Specifically, you need to have a mobile number where the 2SV code can be sent. Google does have ways around this with Google Prompt, but most others do not. There are a number of people, especially in Europe and parts of Asia who primarily use services where they do not have a specific phone number that is a part of the regular exchange system, so 2SV is sometimes a hurdle. It is more secure than going without using any of these methods, but I find 2FA easier and less of an annoyance. Later...

Two-factor authentication is an account modification so once done, on any device, it is done for all devices. >From now on, when you login to your account, you will be required to enter a >security code. Sometimes after setting up 2-factor, you will receive a message on your Mac that you need to login to your account in order to take advantage of all features. Should this happen, just login and if you are already logged-in, then log-out and then log back in.
