My work account requires me to enter a 2-digit code when using authenticator. My personal account shows me a list of three 2-digit numbers, and I can select one of the three numbers to approve sign-on. Can I force my personal account to require manual entry of the 2-digit code instead of selecting it? Having to enter the 2-digit code seems more secure.
