What If I Lose My Phone With Two Factor Authentication
Hello!
Back when I had an Android, it got stolen in a foreign country. I had two factor authentication turned on, so I was unable to Find My Phone at the police station (while filling out a report). When I got back to the Hostel, I was able to email someone back at home to turn off the two factor authentication on another one of my devices so I could access my account. They were able to allowing me to (unsuccessfully) find my missing phone. After that experience I’ve left two factor authentication off.
How much of that would have been different if I had my iPhone? Because I want to access features with Two Factor Authentication, but I plan to continue traveling and I’m sure I will lose another phone abroad.
Thanks! (hopefully it kinda makes sense)
