From my understanding there is no 2FA option on my Homey account.  
Is this correct? If so - terrifying!  
If there is one type of account I would like to be secured with 2FA, it is the one that controls my home.  
Can I get any comments on why 2FA is not implemented?

Brgds,  
Erik

Could you provide a link to the ticket reported directly to Athom?  
This is one of the biggest problems with Homey I have noticed so far.

From my understanding the tickets are private. I got an email response. The ticket number on the email was 10678 if you want to use that as a reference when contacting them. Please do, as it will give them an understanding of the importance of the issue!
