> Apple is so secure they only support their own proprietary second factor push messages to iDevices!
Don’t they support SMS 2FA as well? They do for my dev Apple ID that’s not logged in on any other device at least, and I see the option as a fallback on my personal ID too.
Last time I tried this was only an option after setting up the apple 2FA. So you still need the iDevice even if you don't plan on actually using it. eWaste at its finest!
I really don’t think that’s true. Apple sells music, movies and subscriptions on platforms other than their own (iTunes for Windows, Apple TV and Music for Android etc.), and these require Apple IDs as well.
I dislike many aspects of Apple’s service offerings, but not being able to log in on non-Apple devices was never one of them.
This page now claims that you need a "trusted device" or a "trusted phone number". If true, this is different from how it was in the past. Sadly I have no way to check, since I'm not paying another $100 to sign up with a new account just to prove a point.
