    Looks like newer iPhones have built in 2FA capabilities now, I had no idea :o if you’re using it for your personal accounts I think it should be all good?

    Just a friendly heads-up!

    A friend of mine has been dealing with this issue. So I've read on JellyNeo that the Neopets servers have been displaying inaccurate time for the past week, with the servers falling further into the past with each passing day. Consequently, people have been experiencing issues logging into their Neopets accounts since yesterday because the 2FA codes generated by their apps are no longer being accepted. This problem is caused by the internal clocks on the Neopets servers no longer syncing with a reliable timekeeper. Since the 2FA codes are time-based, they are only valid for a limited amount of time and require the Neopets server to be aware of the correct time.

    Therefore, if you're unable to access your account immediately, please don't panic. I hope TNT will fix this time drift issue soon.

    If anyone else is having this problem with 2FA, here's a possible solution: Receive code 1, copy it for later use, and let it expire. Then, allow code 2 to go through, and just before code 3 expires, enter the first code. This seems to be a mini/temporary fix.
