Recommended Posts

I notice it prompts me for this code whenever logging into the site on my computer, but not when using the eddie VPN client on my android?

You mean the second factor, as in TOTP? This is a feature of the forums software, and Eddie itself does not attempt a login here. :)

It's trivial to enable a feature that is already part of a software. It's not trivial to code it from the ground up in a backend system.
Besides, what's the point? AirVPN's official softwares are the only ones using this backend login, and upon implementation the only thing a second factor would safeguard is the right to establish a connection using the keys saved for an account. Whereas in the case of the forums known credentials would open up the possibility to post and create support tickets as the user, manage keys and account settings like mail and notifications, change connection settings like DNS and port forwarding, get the API key and monitor or change the account via API, etcetc.
