1 of the 2nd authentication apps I have to deal with also has a PC version. I don’t know about others.

Technically speaking it wouldn’t be anything financial on your phone. It’s just an app that you bring up when you’re logging in on your PC that sends a code (sometimes automatically, sometimes you have to enter the code on your PC) that basically says “yes, this login is legit”.

Gotcha. That’s what we do with Amazon and some investment sites. I’m hoping all of them begin to offer that feature. It would be a huge advantage whe it comes to security overall.
