Why does Facebook keep asking for a 6-digit PIN code to synchronize messages every time I use Facebook?

NPM Facebook Agency said:

Since Facebook updated its end-to-end encrypted messaging, many inconveniences have occurred, not because the feature itself is bad, but because Facebook implemented it so poorly. But the most annoying thing is that every time I access Facebook on the web and click on messages, it requires me to enter a 6-digit PIN code, which is really bothersome. Why don't they create a feature to remember familiar devices, so users don't have to keep entering the code manually so many times?

Everyone wants to protect customers' personal information, but sometimes it's annoying.

yes this is inconvenient, but it is safe when we sync messages on new device

Facebook wants to make sure it’s only you using your account, so it asks for a secret code. Think of it like a lock on your door. You need the right key (or code) to get in. It’s like having a friend who always checks your password to make sure it’s really you. If you don’t want Facebook to ask for the code every time, you can tell it to stop in the settings.

Facebook chat encryption feature. This new feature may make many unfamiliar users feel uncomfortable, but it will protect your messages better.

I find this feature not too annoying, also a good way to secure messages

Facebook uses encryption for security to avoid having to enter the code multiple times or you can turn this feature off yourself in the settings on Messager

Facebook is increasing security so this is a good measure to protect users, because there are cases where users have their cookies hacked by thieves, and when the thief logs in, the cookie will not show the type of device the thief logs in on, so the thief can access your mailbox at any time. Currently, Facebook is increasing security for accounts so I think you should adapt to it, it will help you minimize many risks.

I completely feel you on this! The constant need for a 6-digit PIN is really annoying, especially when you’re on the same device all the time. It would make so much sense for Facebook to let us mark devices as trusted to skip that step. It’s frustrating that they haven’t thought of this yet. Hopefully, they’ll roll out something like that soon!

In my opinion, this is a safety measure to increase security and protect privacy, because when thieves invade your device with cookies, Facebook will not be able to detect that intrusion, so they will use your mailbox at any time and do it with fraudulent behavior.
