    Well, the app is free, so there's no extra cost if you have a smartphone.

    It boggles the mind that people are actually anti-FREE account security. Like... what?

    dude... did you get your brain last when they handed it out?
    You have to "loot at your phone" maybe once every 3 months or so. I mean... yeah man it is really annoying... Where is your phone really when you are gaming. It would most def. not be in your pocket or next to your keyboard..
    Meanwhile... the only use is...to protect your gaming experience

    Totally pointless app

    Well obviously you have no clue what you're talking about. Keep being an idiot though, sure it'll work out for you.

    I have an authenticator already, one of the physical ones, not the app on my phone. I've been using one for years.

    2FA ought to be mandatory, I think bribing people with bag space is a great idea to help people help themselves.

    I highly suggest you help yourself and enable 2FA for not only your WoW account, but any other online service you use that supports it. It would be incredibly unfortunate to ever have your account compromised just because you missed out on that "authentication fuckeroo"

    This is the reason for me too why only use sms protect and not the Authenticator.
    Why the Hell need to ask all the time, when using 2 or 3 location regularly?

    Ask the code the first time, then learnt it, is it that hard to implement?

    Will you install that app just for the sake of this bullshit which should have been just put into the game like all other features before it?
    F you over? You mean prevent you from Fing yourself over? Honestly they're just tired of having to do restores for people who can't secure their shit. GM won't allow guild bank access to anyone without one.

    Does you computer have anti-virus software?
    Did someone force you to have it?

    You do it once and then it remembers from where you are logging in and you don't have to do it anymore. Only if you try to log in from a different place.

    So what are its setting options? Can you set it to not ask anything at all?
    MY time is too precious to fuck around with that shit unlike some people here.

    I'm seriously asking those without one - why they don't have one? Do you also not get vaccines? Exact same principle.
    Well, vaccines are actually important...

    its called remembering,

    man calm down.

    once you log in with the new app, it can remember a device, presto no looking at your phone every log in,

    educate yourself before getting aggro at others who offered a valid response.

    The only issue i ever had with authenticators is that i tend to change phones like once a year due to heavy work related usage.

    Price? It is FREE!!!
    Back in TBC when it first came out... then yes it was like 2.5 euro/dollars...(probably due to shipping) So then I could... no wait... no I would not understand.

    You don't seem to actually know how it works- You only have to use it once until you log in from a different IP if you're launching Warcraft from the Battle.net app. I haven't used my authenticator in MONTHS.

    It's also free.

    There's no reason not to have one to increase the security of your account. The bag slots are just a bonus.

    Nah fuck that. Have to type in a password from my phone every time I log in???
