Hi there,
maybe I am blind at the moment?
If you have a look at the App Store (e.g. Apple) you see the following sentence:

Hi,
yes....but. We have some discussion at the moment, because we are dealing with very confidential data: What if access to the system is done with the same mobile device on which also the Authenticator App is running. And let's assume that this device is comprimised. Saved password in browser + authenticator app which is open.
That's the current discussion. I totally agree with you regarding usability. But I would like to know if an additional PIN or TouchID could be enforced, following the description in the AppStore.
Thanks and regards
Ralph
