Scan

What am I supposed to scan?

Pointless

The website told me to download this app. Thinking it would give me more convenient way of managing my account, I downloaded it. But turns out it’s just an Authenticator to log onto the website (ps, which is also absolutely awful).
The company has missed a trick here.

Mandated custom MFA

I use a lot of websites that require me to set up MFA, all of which use industry standard mechanisms meaning I just set up an OTP in my chosen password manager. Now I’m forced to use an app on my phone that requires me to scan a QR code but I can’t scan a QR code in my phone browser using the custom app on my phone.

The most brittle security app I’ve ever seen

Trying to register a new device when you still have access to the old device is pretty much impossible. It’s junk

Really stupid

Since they introduced this Authenticator I have been repeatedly locked out of Equateplus and it asks me to scan some QR code and I have no idea which QR code.
