The method of two factor authentication used by Ring is obsolete and prone to hacking -- see this article (one of hundreds) highlighting Microsoft's alarm about this: [https://www.csbnews.net/technology/microsoft-warns-smartphone-twofactor-authentication-86646462 ](https://www.csbnews.net/technology/microsoft-warns-smartphone-twofactor-authentication-86646462 )RING: please get your IT folks up to date asap and get with Authenticator apps, NOT two factor authentication via text!!

Come on you guys. I just received an email from Ring instructing me to switch 2FA to receiv the authorization code text message.Subject: Important Reminder: Update Two-Step Verification to Text MessageRight after Microsoft has begun pubically warning people to cease using this method of receiving an auth codePlease get it together. This does not look good coming from a company supposedly providing security.

Ring, I solely use my phone for access. Considering it uses biometric auth, can we end the 2 factor on the apps? I understand the computer access, but for phone apps with biometrics, it's pointless. Or let us use biometric sign in. This is not a welcome change...
