PS4 - Firmware 8.0 Will Add for Authentication Apps
Sony intends to introduce a two-step verification option on PlayStation 4, using authentication apps. The feature will debut with the console's software version 8.0.
A week ago we received information about another PlayStation 4 driver update and a list of announced changes. However, the s apparently missed one important innovation. This was mentioned by Wario64, known for its many, mostly confirmed leaks. With firmware 8.0, Sony will finally introduce a two-step verification system using authentication apps. This was also confirmed by s of ResetEra forum.
PlayStation 4 owners have long enjoyed optional two-step verification, but only via text messages. These, as we know, can come with a delay, which may discourage us from activating the feature. However, don't count on imminent introduction of authentication app . Firmware 8.0 is still in beta phase and it will take some time before it reaches all players. Moreover, at the time of writing this message, the feature was not yet active in beta-tests (via ResetEra).
Let us remind that with the 8.0 update we will receive a lot of new features related to event and a handful of cosmetic fixes. There may be more changes, and some of the listed novelties may not be included in the final version of the update. We don't know yet when the new firmware will be available to all PS4 owners.
