    How hard is it to use a separate password manager and MFA app? I personally don’t keep any MFA codes in keychain because it’s not convenient to retrieve the passcode in most cases.

      You’re posting this on an Apple forum so I have to ask: how is not convenient? If you use iCloud Keychain + Safari everywhere, it’s ridiculously convenient. I went through some contortions in order to migrate my Symantec VIP codes to iCloud Keychain just so I could have that sweet code integration.

        I can’t use my 2FA codes on devices that aren’t connected to my Apple ID, my work devices use Apple Business Manager apple IDs. I have a PC I use for Sony Vegas, etc.

          I’m on all the betas so I can’t be sure if it’s available to everyone but apple’s keychain gives you the option of using Authy or google chrome 2FA codes so, at least on Mac, your codes will auto-populate
