MFA - Push Notification for Auth

Feature request - MFA: push authentication
When i login on another device just ask my proton auth or proton pass logged in device (mobile phone preferred)
Are you trying to log in?
Yes/no? Press the number you see on screen:
1 , 13, 67
with a number on the device im trying to login matching one of those

    Push notification auth is a great convenience when using the authenticator on another device and to help new users to switch to using Proton.

    Proton auth not having this kind of basic phishing resistance is kind of shocking.

    How it would work:
    - Users receive a push notification on trusted devices (phone, smartwatch) when a login attempt is made.
    - One-tap approval ("Allow"/"Deny")—no code entry needed.
    - Optional: Include context (e.g., location, device, time of login attempt) in the notification.

    Benefits:
    Faster: No manual code copying.
    User-friendly: Approve logins from your lock screen or Apple Watch.
    Secure: Push 2FA is more phishing-resistant than SMS and more convenient than TOTP.
    Modern: Aligns with industry standards (1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass).
