Hi, thanks for reaching out! I’m not able to reproduce that. What’s the version of the Google Authenticator app you’re using?

[lineke]

@i-just I use the latest version 4.2.1. I asked this question first with Craft Support via email and Tommy Silver responded that he could reproduce it.

Ah, you’re on an iPhone, right?

@i-just Yes, that is correct. I should have put that in the ticket as well, sorry about that.
