A lot of security is based on trust. Trust relies on competence. The security theatre I get from a lot of sites and apps, sometimes elaborated through MFA, does not inspire such trust.
That device you tell me is unrecognised? It's the one I've used to access the app every day for at least the last year.
If you want to convince me your app is secure, start with competence. Poorly engineered products don't do that. KPI-driven product staff don't do that.
