One of the big things keeping me from going down this road is the need to carry around a phone for 2FA purposes. Is there anything that can fill that gap?

- glogla 4y agoYeah, around here (EU) every bank decided you need to have an app to be able to do anything with your account or pay using card online. You don't need just a phone, but a smartphone.

- chunk_waffle 4y agoMany sites don't support hardware tokens, and some sites such as banks require and only allow SMS 2FA. I even planned to switch banks and the two others near me also required a cell phone SMS 2FA for online banking with no other alternatives. Online banking is far too beneficial to give up (traveling abroad, checking balance, moving funds around) and there are other sites besides banks that do this too. It's infuriating.
