    Xbox - two factor authentication


    Hi, I am part of skip ahead ring. I have a password protected account in my xbox and in the last 2 months it started to ask me for a two factor authentication code which make sense.

    The issue is that I want the option to check "this is my regular device, trust it next time ", just like Android and pc.. I dont want to cancel 2 factor authentication in one hand because its a must but I dont want to approve every xbox login.

    I find it really annoying.

    Already opened bug request from my xbox, hope this thread will be arriving to xbox insider stuffs.... I asking for little checkbox, same behavior that implemented in other platforms.

    Missing checkbox seems like an annoying bug.

    Two Factor Authentication.

    I got an Xbox One today so I can properly answer this now. Logged into my two-factor-enabled account and was prompted on screen for two factor authentication. I used my phone to generate the one time use code (like I do with most other services) and it worked
    perfectly.

    The Xbox One doesn't require an 'app password' like the Xbox 360. Not sure where donniehun got their information, but it was flat out wrong.
