  Last week I activated 2FA for my WordPress account. However, I cannot log into Jetpack on my Android device. As soon as I deactivate 2FA I can.

  Today I activated 2FA again with the same result on my Android device.

  So. Is this a known problem with any solutions or fixes?

  Hello

  Yes, I have read that article. It is the one I used to set up my 2FA. It was very difficult to find the section I missed about application-specific passwords. I assume this is what you were referring to especially.

  I managed to generate the A-S password but am not sure how to deploy it.

  Do I just change my password to this generated on the app using he get password option ? Advice welcome.
