Edit: a lot of people are asking how I am working on a cross-platform app but I can't afford an iPhone / Mac to test on.
To be clear I did resolve this situation with the Apple ID by asking an iOS-focused teammate of mine to test the app for me, that's somewhat besides the point though.
I was trying to add a feature, Sign in with Apple, to my Android app. This is supposed to be possible. It turns out it is, but it was significantly harder than adding any other form of authentication to my app than I've ever tried.
If they want it to be developer friendly they could:
* Allow the creating of "testing" Apple IDs without the 2FA requirement
* Have docs that actually mention best practices on non-iOS platforms
* Maybe even provide a basic SDK
I wasn't calling Apple evil or saying I couldn't afford a Mac, I was just calling out a bad developer experience.
