Should be. I bought tickets on the official website but they would not accept receipt or even verification from that website. Needed a qr code and only way to get it was with app. Had to step out of line, download the app, remember login I had generated from website, login and pull up the qr codes for my tickets.

Tell that to 2FA apps for banks and enterprise security systems.

My bank demands sms.

I want my own authentication app so I can access my account even if my phone is missing/dead
