Yes, please. This is ridiculous that it isn’t already implemented.

agreed.

Please implement :+1:

I’ve been watching this thread for what feels like 2 years. Until Plex get’s well and truly hacked at large scale they won’t expend the dev time to implement this. It’s time I started looking for another solution. Anyone got any ideas? I gave Emby a shot but the UI both in Web and Roku was a nightmare and epileptic inducing(constant image refresh).

We need this. Please do this!

Please Plex devs, your product is wonderful and works fantastic BUT 2FA is a must have, no matter what way you want to do it, phone number, sms text, authentication app, I don’t care but it is a must in the world we live in today! PLEASE make this happen this year or I do think you will start loosing customers.

This feature request has been open since 2015! What a joke.

this is badly needed

2FA in 2019 should be mandatory

I would love to see this. Just noticed someone was streaming off my account who i never approved. This would have prevented that.

To be somewhat fair here, if you use a Google account to authenticate, you can enable a wide variety of MFA options (including the very best, a physical usb key).

But that still doesn’t excuse the lack of native MFA support from the Plex team. Get it together guys, please. This is a critical feature.

Off your own account?? You might want to change your password and sign out of all devices.

Yes, my own account.

Didn’t get any email of an invite being sent/accepted.
First thing I did was boot the user who was actively streaming, and changed my password.

If you see it again I would chage the password and sign out of all devices and contact plex directly.

+1 for this feature

Two factor/multifactor authentication has become a standard across online account to prevent ATO, brute force logins, and many other security issues, including inappropriately secured api endpionts. Plex Pass is a paid service, and honestly I would expect plex to begin offering this as an account protection feature. I am sure these sentiments are reiterated many times in this thread, but also wanted to add my +1…

+1 from me

As much as I love not using tidal, a lack of 2fa is embarrassing. I belong to forums that support 2fa. +1

Account security should be a top priority for Plex Inc., can’t believe this request has been open for 4 years! Lets make this happen before X-Mas 2019.

Yeah #Plex2FA4xmas lol
