Hi   @GunnarBernstein 

Thank you very much for sharing your feedback with the 2FA

Two-Step Verification is a security feature in the Kasa or Tapo APP that helps add an extra layer of security to your account and therefore we encourage our customers to enable this feature.

It will take time to set up and log in to the account for the first time, however, this will benefit the account security in the long term.  You are free to choose some trusted devices that can skip the 2FA step when this feature is enabled, so it will be quite simple to log in for the trusted devices. 

Latest news from our team: the 2FA has been optimized and the prompt should be decreased a lot, feel free to let us know if it works better now. 

Thank you again for sharing the feedback.
