How do I REMOVE this ECG and it's two step authorization ????

The thing that it's not possible to turn off 2FA is very bad. Non native integration 3rd party apps are not working anymore.

I'd also wish to be able to switch it off

As far as I know, you can’t remove/turn off the 2FA for your used account.

You can remove the 2-Step Verification process.

Two-Step Verification on Garmin Accounts

Sorry Chris, that does NOT remove the 2-step, it only forces people to add BS to there browser history, yet more ways to track

Did you follow the article given? Here is what shows on my own Garmin account:

If you still have an issue, please highlight my name and send me a Private Message. I will be happy to help you further.

Here it is. Not possible to switch off.

Thank you for the screenshot. Did you by any chance add ECG to your watch and agree to the 2-Step Verification? (With the regulatory side of things, I suspect there is more to the story on why it is showing as permanent.)

If not ECG feature relations, how long have you had your Garmin account setup with 2-step verification?

Hi! Yep, I did it myself. Now I understand that this is because of regulations. However, I was not aware that it will be permanent 2FA. Probably it was written somewhere, but who really read all those texts.

I mean it would be nice to be able to switch it off somehow after it was enabled.

Might be something in this thread - https://forums.garmin.com/apps-software/mobile-apps-web/f/garmin-connect-web/321912/permanent-two-step-verification#pifragment-1286=5

Looks like a fix was provided a few months back but perhaps overlooked now.

Have you removed the ECG app? If that has gone it should be expected the ability to remove 2FA would reappear.
