Traveling abroad unable to receive text messages for 2FA
Hi,
I have 2FA enabled on most of my accounts. Services like Google will usually revoke access when trying to access their services from a different location. Consequently one has to go trough the 2FA in order to get the various apps working again.
However I have a big concern about being able to receive the text messages when traveling abroad. I will have access to WiFi for data.
The only support articles I can find on this forum are regarding DropBox.
But I am really concerned about my Apple iD (iCloud) and Google.
Looking forward to your advice,
Rogier

Hi @MacExpert,
1Password can store most two-step authentication secrets such that it can generate the required codes. It can do so for Google, for example. You can find more information here:

Please note that this feature does require that you've unlocked Pro features.
Thanks!
