Ah, using Android so I guess that's why. Weird though, given that Microsoft claims it's an intentional feature. Why wouldn't a feature like that be implemented in both platforms?
Even though it might be a dumb feature as seen from the users POV, it seems sufficiently special that it's something that I would assume one would want to have feature parity on.
I’ve been using MS Authenticator for a long time, mainly on iOS and I’ve never experienced this bug.
That's me (iOS scan the QR code) and I've never encountered the bug either.
