Yahoo Mail & 2FA process
Simplify Mail 2FA. With a multitude of alternatives, it’s easy for the signing in process to get overly, if not impossibly complicated, especially when accessed with other devices. If 2FA is set up on one device with both phone and authenticator, then signing in on another device, one that is frequently used, easily becomes a nightmare, even more so if away from the original device. I speak from experience.
It would be a lot better if the process were simplified to one or two methods, such as a current password and email code verification, using the backup email(s) the user has listed. Or a phone call, not SMS, since many people don’t have cell phones, or don’t regularly use them (or give out the number to just anyone). Banks do this, so why not Yahoo?
And on this page, if I’m already signed into Yahoo, why do I need to sign in again to make a suggestion? And agree to some User Voice business? Talk about making things more complicated than they need to be.
