What if for example here in Israel allot of religious workers who have a "kosher" phone wich is simply an old button nokia phone with allot of blocked content who doesnt have apple store or google play on it, how will they be able to authenticate? will companies still be able to not force workers to use this app method and stay on sms or voice call?
