   The other day a supermarket app refused to run, and asked for a login. I   
   never remember the password, all are random and difficult. So I close   
   the app and restart it again. This time it asks for my fingerprint, and   
   then asks for a number sent by SMS. I get the number, and it says it is   
   wrong. Twice. I close the app again and restart again. This time I   
   notice that there are 3 SMS with a one time code. So the first time it   
   failed, it already had sent me an SMS without telling me. And the second   
   time I was typing the code pertaining to the first SMS and first try.
