    I have no smartphone and am unable to access any of my college resources or email from home because you need a security app for remote login. I’ve got in trouble a few times for it but idk what I’m supposed to do. I wasn’t able to access my Exam Timetable because of this and had to ask some friends when the exams were because my teachers didn’t know (somehow). It’s very annoying.

      You could install an android emulator on your personal computer then run the authenticator from there.

          The OC said in a different comment that you must be on the college network to set it up.

          You don’t need to tag me, by the way; I get a notification if someone responds to me directly.

        The authenticator requires you to be in the college’s network to set it up for the first time and I don’t have a laptop.
