2FA ?


NicoPang

Question

Hi

It looks like the only 2FA option available with IG is with using IG proprietary authentication app, am I correct?  I would like to use a Yubikey or at worst, a phone number, is it possible at all ?

Looking at the app review it looks like many people get locked out of their account which terrifies me.  

 

thanks

Hey @NicoPang

Thanks for your post. 

We only offer the IG authentication but I'm more than happy to pass this feedback on about integrating more authentication apps. 

Most of the login issues are due to too many incorrect password attempt or people trying to login when their accounts aren't set up yet. If you ever have login issues you can call us and we can unlock it. 

Sorry we can't link up any other authentication apps at the moment.

If your account is blocked, you will not be able to unblock it via Yubikey. It is better to leave your phone number. Although I would not take any chances, because the number is linked to the service and your account may be displayed there.

 The best option is a temporary phone number germany to deflect suspicion and make yourself a foreign user. I don't like to leave my number in such cases. So you should also consider whether it's worth registering personal details on the internet at all.
