  • Some Spotify users are being prompted to enter a 2FA code when logging into their accounts on a new device.
  • The feature has rolled out to select accounts, but there’s seemingly no way to manage or toggle it.
  • The security codes are delivered through emails exclusively, and there’s currently no way to set up the 2FA feature using a third-party app.

Spotify hacks aren’t unheard of, and numerous thieves log into premium accounts using leaked credentials. That’s to avoid paying for the service and enjoy it without ads or restrictions. The good news is that Spotify has finally listened to its users and is seemingly rolling out a 2-factor authentication (2FA) feature. The bad news is that it is unreliable, works unpredictably, and hasn’t been implemented properly.
