It really helps me a lot

Works flawlessly! Easy UI for users to setup their 2FA, does not need much configuration if at all. And what I appericiate, does just one thing and does it good - instead of being packed with multiple more or less related functionalities.

This is a great plugin to enable something Wordpress should probably offer out of the box. With all the hits I see trying to login to my site, I feel safer knowing I have two-factor enabled! My only request would be to be able to set a cookie to trust a given browser longer so I don't need to reauthenticate as often on my main laptop.
