Drop Authy, this **** app does not work anywhere, allow us to use another auth app, or ACTUALLY SEND THE ******** SMS CODES AT LOG IN!
I'm locked out of my twitch account because Twitch refuses to send me the 2FA SMS. Their support suggested I contact Authy and/or install the app and use that to log in. I installed Authy on my phone and it just says "This device does not meet minimum integrity requirements" and refuses to work, but I have Google Authenticator on it which works perfectly. I contacted Authy support, and they are suggesting I install the app or contact twitch for help. They have created a nice cycle of actually not doing *. I used Authy to even change my phone number which they did and had to identify me which required them to send me an SMS code to my previous phone number that was registered on Twitch but on which Twitch was somehow failing to send the same kind of SMS code to let me log in, and even with this new number I still can't log in because again Twitch is not sending the SMS codes. I have asked Authy support to delete my Authy account and if deleting it will remove the 2FA requirement from Twitch and allow me to log in without the need of an SMS code, and they said they aren't sure. Then WHO THE * ELSE should know this if not the side that handles the 2FA for Twitch? And all twitch support does is it recommends me install Authy or contact them for support. This system was designed by morons.

I installed the Authy on an Android emulator, still gives me the same error and does not work. I installed the desktop version of it, and it still gives me the same error.
At least give as a way to transfer the 2FA authentication from this ********* to a normal authenticator app, or give us some backup codes or ways to verify our identity so we can disable this ****.
