I can't imagine the pain of having to do 2FA when iOS and MacOS ask for iCloud passwords so frequently - the friction is atrocious.

- UVB-76 11y agoAs I understand it, this only has to be done when accessing your Apple ID from a new device.
- bengale 11y agoYeah the old system was a real pain to use. This one is much better, it just asks you to pick a device to get a code from, it'll pop up and you type the 4 digit code in.
