Devil's advocate here; Do I want my tax money to be used to create an app for an extremely niche group of people? (i.e. people who have a smartphone but not regular Android/iOS). How many people are we talking about, a few thousand on a population of 17 million? We're not talking about unavailability of government services, there's still a process available, the analog one.

    Sorry to keep posting this same sort of comment here, but: does that say anything about U2F or FIDO2?

      No; just TOTP.
