I saw this on infinity for Reddit earlier, I don't know if there's a workaround for this or not.

I guess the recommendation of turning off the Bluetooth to save battery, or the sarcastic comment that usually says "bro, just turn off the phone if you care too much about the battery" are gonna be obsolete now aren't they?

Unfortunately many require 2FA with their app to log in via web browser

Doubt that. Banks officially always have a fully offline paperwork process as well. Every bank. So smartphone involvement is not mandatory, you could have a dumbphone with SMS capability for 2FA.

We are just used to and blinded by convenience in our sedentary lives.
