Hey sleepymonk, I hope you're doing well!
Have you tried a different browser when trying to set it up? If not, can you give this a go, and let me know of the results?

I'm using Chrome, so I tried Safari.
It looks like I didn't complete the process. That's because it brings you back to the screen where you type your phone number in. This time I clicked on NEXT and it brought up security codes. I clicked through that and I was able to complete the process and log out. I was sent a text message the next time I logged in.
I chose to receive text messages rather than an app.
It would be less confusing if the screen where you type your phone number in doesn't show up again. That was the problem.
Thanks for your help, Megan.
