If I am using a previously used device, I do not get asked for 2FA on Schwab or Fidelity.

Also, macOS/iOS automatically fill in SMS 2FA which is nice.

Ah, that's nice, I hate sites that don't do that -- which includes the one I am currently forced to use. Hilariously, the mobile app allows using the fingerprint scanner instead of entering my password -- but still requires me to enter the 2FA code every time, which of course is on the same device, so it's not doing anything other than just wasting my time.

Don't use SMS 2FA, though.
