Notifications on device from two-step verification

 

Whenever I login into the Samsung account every device that is signed into the account gets a notification, due to the two-step notification.

 

Technically I could chose which device gets the notification, but it does not happen in practice. I get a notification in all devices despite being unselected.

 

Device selection can be done by going on:

Settings -> Accounts and backup -> Manage accounts -> Samsung account -> My profile -> Security and privacy -> Two-step verification -> Galaxy device notification (n) -> Devices can be toggle on/off

 

I have selected the Galaxy S24 Ultra to be the device receiving notification.

 

S24 Ultra selectedS24 Ultra selected

 

 

The Samsung account does not honour those settings. My settings have the S24 Ultra as the only device to receive notification but clearly all of them received it.

Is there a way, to change this behaviour? 

 

Trusted devices

 

Security also show trusted devices, with a button to remove them all.

Is there a way to list them and remove them individually?

We can only remove trusted devices in bulk for the the time being at least. I've checked web version but still it only offers do it in bulk. I removed old devices at least

62 devices 😵💫😮😬, but I guess  real number is 5 and you can see them in SmartThings, rest to 62 are apps, browsers or something like that  and every time when you change your passwords and choose to log out of all, when you log in again Samsung count them as new devices, you can see that in recent account activity for last 12 months

Yes, I also had checked the web. The bulk remove seems a very blunt tool.

Yes, I had checked account activity, but again, it is not very useful. Nothing can be done with those entries. It would nice to be able to remove those devices individually. I do not want to remove the browser instance that I am using or my devices.
