Enabling 2FA should include some recovery codes

+8
−0

After enabling two factor authentication (2FA) for my account I'm only notified It is successfully turned On.

I think it should include some recovery codes as well (to be used in case I can't access my authenticator app, etc.).

  • So, is this feature somewhere (hidden) on my profile/account settings?

  • If no, is it planned to be included in a near future?

copy link

Just realised I never actually responded to this. It's not one we thought of (the 2FA system was copied over from another, older, implementation of mine from before it was a recommended practice), but it's definitely one we should do.
