Apple has long warned that it has enabled dual-factor authentication in its user accounts, to the point where it is limited to have some iOS features. But the company understands that it's a very relaxed process, so that proposed a new standard so that the codes we receive in SMS messages are easier to use.
What Apple wants with this change the SMS recovery process and write the code that includes where the authentication process asks us. Apple already has the ability to do it on iOS, but its idea is to create a program so that all companies can do it from the same base.
It's a good idea, but not yet solving the & # 39; Swing Swatch & # 39;
That can happen place that SMS code at URL, whose format will be standard for any application and service it can use. In this proposal we have a simple example of what it can be like:
747723 is your (website) authentication code.
@website.com #747723
That address will know be found by an application we may not be waiting for
The idea is great and can encourage users to better protect their user accounts, as this will make the process of authentication more enjoyable (There are also requirements for "it's too late"). However, the receipt of codes via SMS has one major drawback: the placement of SIM cards. That's why Apple doesn't use SMS yet uses native notifications for its programs, in the same way that Google already does with its mobile app. So this plan may be a good idea, but it may be too late.
