Hi @L1111. When signing into your Ring account on the Ring App or on the Ring website, you'll always receive a two-step verification code in order to keep your account secure. Your safety and privacy are one of our top concerns, and you can choose whether to receive the two-step verification code via email or text message in the [Control Center](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038142272-Ring-Control-Center-Information). I hope this helps answer your questions. :)

Hi This is for the community forums though. I have to sign in every time and authenticate with 2FA. I understand the app etc, but what about the community forums? Thanks

Hi @L1111. Yes, your Community account is the same as your Ring account so it will behave the same way in that a two-step verification code is needed to sign in.

Ok, so I have to 2FA everytime, is there a way to not remember the browser though? Or make it an extended time as it times out and have to do it all again even after an hour. Thanks

@L1111 No, there is no way to remember the browser or adjust the time at which it will automatically sign you out. These measures are in place to protect the privacy and security of your Ring account, but we appreciate the feedback you've shared. :)

I'm all for two factor authentication, but Ring's implementation is inconsistent and can be annoying. 1. You need 2FA to login to the app. That's good, but once logged in there is no further protection. If security/privacy is a concern then it should be possible to further require a pin or fingerpr

This is puzzling to me too. Why do I need to get a 2FA push to log into the community every time but not my actual Ring account? Seems backwards!

This is my question. 2FA is great. Bit as above. Once for the app, yet every time for a forum? Doesn’t seem like they’ve thought about it very well really.

Same here, even my bank can get the 2FA right and the community forum and even the Ring dashboard can remember the 2FA but not the forms. Annoying.

Hey neighbors. You can login to Ring.com and have the option to "Keep me signed in for 30 days). I hope this helps!

That's for ring.com, we're also talking about this community site, which doesn't seem to have that option.

@Tom_Ring This does not work as advertised. Browser app will ignore that you have selected "Keep me signed in" and require re-sign in about once an hour. It's actually faster to just login again then go through the double confirmation that "Keep me signed in" requires. I have spent over an hour in
