<p class="MsoNormal">I chose Microsoft Authenticator because I already use it for two other logins. It works fine across my PC, Apple phone, and iPad. It\u2019s easy to set up and once you\u2019ve done so just continue to log in the way you always have except where you
used to choose \u201csend a code by email\u201d, choose Authenticator, which is a provided clickable option. Couldn\u2019t be easier and I\u2019ve had no problems with it.<o:p></o:p></p>
