You can but it’s key + pin OR password, not key + pin + password. I’ve tried a bunch of different setup configurations and can’t get it to work as a true 2FA like it should.

I did get it set up correctly at some point but an OS upgrade wiped the settings. I’ll have to try it again, but the path for setup isn’t as easy as it seems.
