Use Passwords instead of authentica­tion apps

-

On some websites that support two–factor authentica­tion, you can use Passwords instead of a dedicated authentica­tor app. This means that you will enter the code on your Mac and not an iPhone. To set it up, you’ll need to visit the website and get an authentica­tion key. You then navigate to the Edit screen for the account in System Preference­s > Passwords, choose Enter Setup Key and paste in the key. When you need to log in to the website, go to the account in Passwords and you will see the time–limited verificati­on key.
