Help with authenticator question please

#0 - Aug. 26, 2010, 4:52 p.m.

hey, so I activated my mobile authenticator system (with ipod) since I got hacked a few days ago. my question is: isn't there a way for me to go to some1's house and be able to play, with out having to be carrying my ipod to every place I go? I travel by train and public bus so it's not that secure for me to do so... plus I use to forget my things lol. Thanks in advice..
PD: what if I copy on a lil paper one code from the authenticator and then type it to use it? is it posible?

I am definitely happy to hear you have added the authenticator to the account, Rakoh. When you have an authenticator on the account you will need to have it in your possession whenever you wish to play the game, even if you are at a friend’s house.

As the code changes roughly every 30 seconds this will not be possible.

Q u o t e:
I wasn't even aware they had an ipod version.

There sure is, Bubbajoe! The Mobile Authenticator is available through iTunes for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and the iPad; and available though the Market for Android users. If you do not have either of these devices, the Mobile Authenticator still may be an option; however it will depend entirely on your service provider and the type of phone you have.

If you would like to check if you phone is compatible with the Mobile Authenticator app, you may do so here:
