Can't login to the site if there's a 2FA plugin

[fluiddot]

Following several app reviews, if the site has a plugin that enables 2FA authentication, you can't log in to the app with a user with 2FA enabled as it results in an error.

If you have a Wordpress installation with 2FA you can’t use this app as it’s not possible to log in.
