Has something changed on the site in the last couple of days that might affect the 2 step verification in Safari? On my Mac, I'm unable to get past the verification code step. I'm posting this from my iPad where I'm still logged in. I turned off Private Relay and Adblock, rebooted Safari, cleared the history, and multiple login attempts to confirm the verification code result in the title message.

I use the Monterey/Safari code generator and it's worked very well up until the last day or so. I clear my web history often so log back in a few times a week with no issues. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue. I'm not sure what else to try.

I don’t believe anything has changed but it can look into it some more

Thanks, Arn. On my iPad I disabled MR verification code, and re-set it up using the MR provided code, not the OCR. On the last MR confirm step where it asks for the new verification code, I copied and pasted it from Settings > Passwords, but then got the error "This action is available via POST only. Please press the back button and try again."

So now I can't re-enable this functionality. This was working beautifully until a couple days ago, and nothing else on my iPad or Mac has changed. I prefer not to use Authy, and I guess for now I'll use the email method.

I just re-setup two factor for my account without issue.

Can you make sure the time on your iPad or whichever device is set properly? That sometimes can cause issues.
