It's sent to the phone *ONE TIME*. A couple of seconds. The horrors. (To
use your exact words.)

*YOU* brought up the CONVENIENCE angle.

Nope. Sensitive apps still require a user name and password, even on a
certified browser. (Unless you allow the browser to save the password,
which I don't.)

Fortunately all my sites allow 2FA SMS with an unlimited time limit.

Don't see why. My phone's bank app was certified over 2 years ago and
counting. Someone obtaining illegal possession of my phone still needs
to know 2 separate passwords (phone and bank app) to access the account.
Seems like adequate security to me.
