    2 Factor Authenticator options

    The current option to be 2FA requires you to own a smartphone or something to capture the QR code. What about the users who have dumb phones such as myself. It prevents us from protecting our account with a different option. I would think this update be a big help to Sythe members if there was a way to get 2FA other than just needing to own a smart phone.

    I purpose we add some of these options,

    1. Authenticator like rs via Winauth and Google Authenticator and have the file stored on a USB so if the PC is hacked the Authenticator won't be able to work without the USB.

    2. The option to create a 2FA and keep it stored via the cloud.

    3. A code generated that when entered it acts like a 2FA. This could be a basic code that is sent to the users email and whenever they need to login they verify via email. This way if a users Sythe password is leaked but the email isn't there's a chance the hacker/phisher won't gain access to your Sythe account.

    I know this will be a lot of back and fourth with opinions but keep in mind I'm only trying to make Sythe safer for users. If you have any opinions feel free to post them yourself and i'll edit my post with a quote of your opinion.

    If you have a tablet, Ipad or that sort of device you can use that easily. I also saw in a post somewhere Richard said that you can download an app on a computer to use to get 2FA, however he also mentioned it wasn't recommended.
