MFA setup process times out session even though I took 1 minute

What problem are you trying to solve?

Focus on the what and why of the need you have, not the how you'd like it solved.

MFA setup process times out session even though I took less than 1 minute. I tried again with the same result. Now I have 2 accounts on my auth app and neither work. What a mess.

What would you like to see happen?

Describe the desired outcome or enhancement.

Your MFA setup session times being significantly longer. Overall your signup process just annoyed me, things like a 5 minute timeout on MFA tokens and stupidly short MFA setup times is just silly. This is not security, its actively blocking people from using your product.

Why is this important to you or your team?

Explain how the request adds value or solves a business need.

I cant set up MFA

What steps, if any, are you taking today to manage this problem?

It's your problem, not mine.
