Thanks. I have Google backup codes as well as multiple Authy installations, Google prompt and a recovery email address so I guess I should be covered :)

- bogomipz 4y agoWhat is "Google prompt" here?
- fauigerzigerk 4y agoIt’s a notification pop-up the Google mobile app can send, asking for login confirmation.
- bogomipz 4y agoI see, but doesn't have the same issue as sending an SMS to the phone if the phone has been stolen in that the thief can just say "yes" to the prompt?
- fauigerzigerk 4y agoNo, it's not quite the same issue. SIM swap works remotely without anyone getting a hold of my phone. A stolen phone can of course be a problem as well, but at least it's somewhat under my control and I may notice pretty quickly when it's gone.
