Comet Browser: Your Newest (and Hopefully Not Worst) Weapon Against 2FA

Another day, another login. Another password, another two-factor authentication code, another reason to question why we even bother with the internet.

It’s a relentless cycle of fetching codes from your email, your texts, and sometimes, if you’re really unlucky, a carrier pigeon. All this just to access the same five websites you use every single day. Because, you know, security.

But what if I told you there’s a browser that promises to do the dirty work for you?

Enter Comet Browser, the latest contender in the war against login fatigue. Does it work? Let’s find out.

The Glorious Promise of Automation

Comet Browser claims it can handle the entire login process for you. That’s right—passwords, 2FA codes, the whole shebang.

It’s like having a tiny, digital butler who lives in your browser and does all the boring stuff you don’t want to do.

All you have to do is grant it keychain access, which is basically like giving it the keys to your digital kingdom. No big deal, right?

The idea is simple: you tell Comet to log you in, and it does. It finds the verification code, pastes it where it needs to go, and voilà—you’re in.

No more switching between apps, no more mistyping codes, no more existential dread every time you see a login screen. Sounds pretty great, doesn’t it? Almost too great.

How to Let Comet Take the Wheel

Ready to hand over the reins? Here’s the not-so-secret formula:

1. Open Comet Browser and go to the login page. This is the easy part. You’ve done this a million times.

2. Tell Comet what to do. Something along the lines of “Log me into my bank account” should suffice.

3. Let it handle the 2FA code. If prompted, tell it to “check my email for the code” or “grab the code from my texts.”

4. Watch it work. Or, you know, go make a sandwich.

Does It Actually Work?

Here’s the thing: it’s not perfect. Sometimes it works like a charm, and other times it gets stuck, leaving you to copy and paste the code yourself.

So, is it a life-changing miracle? Not quite. But is it better than the current nightmare of manual 2FA? Absolutely.

Comet Browser might not be the hero we deserve, but it’s the one we’ve got. And honestly, anything that makes the daily login grind even a little less painful is a win in my book.

So go ahead, give it a try. What have you got to lose? (Besides your sanity, of course.) Oh, by the way, it’s absolutely free and you can download it right now. [LINK]

Thanks for reading!

Alright, that’s a wrap! Hopefully, you didn’t mind the extra email this week. We really strive to keep to our word by sending you one weekly email, but this was something we couldn’t wait until Sunday.

If this is the sort of thing that pisses you off, let us know in the comments or reply to this email, and I’ll make sure to add you to a special “Do not send extra emails to this email” list.
