Yep, you're right. Authenticator app isn't in the beta yet.
Thanks. Redeemed the code and everything works. :)
For some reason I didn't get a code or message on my PS4, but I could have sworn that the last beta said I would be part of every other beta going forward.
Ill take a EU code if anyone have a spare one! :)
Edit: seems like codes can be used multiple times.

Sadly you're probably right even tho Sony seems to track it
Urghh... Mostly party related. Was hoping for something cool. Prob not worth it this close To ps5.
Auth is good though

2FA is great but I'm still hesitant on the party changes, specifically the fact that it's based off of groups now.
Holy fuck this new party system is garbage. You have to create a group with someone to invite them into the party. If someone isn't in the group you can't invite them.
Why did they change it to this? This is terrible.
Also if you're on the beta you can't join parties with people who aren't on the beta. Probably why they gave everyone so many codes.

Exactly.. for a big X.0 update this is lame. I'm glad they're finally introducing proper 2FA though.
Used yours thank you very much (worked for EU, outside GER).
Thanks! Much appreciated. The authenticator app alone is good reason to be on board with this.
The changes to parties are completely bizarre. I'm honestly baffled. You have to make a message group with people just to be in a party with them? No more private parties? Blocked users can still join your party? None of those make any sense...at all.
Plus, text messages can be slow.
If you still don't use the 2FA app, then you are doing it wrong. Authy only takes up 34 megabytes on my phone, no ads or annoying notifications.
Authenticator? About damm time Sony
But of course they had to fuck up other thing... Party changes sounds beyond awful.
One step forward, two back.

I like to have very minimal apps on my phone. I remove nearly all factory stuff and have it so there's only one page in the app panel.
I hate clutter
I'm replying because I want the code, but not sure how that would work. Have I fallen for a trick?
They do. I will never understand why they don't show it to us.
Messages and speech are still blocked by them and the only way they can return to a group is if they were in it to begin with.
A most devious trick!
No, once you replied to my comment the code should be visible, and you can try redeeming it as any other code at the PSN Store, given that it hasn't been used 20 times already :)
I was going to ask why this feature exists....But I guess it's so unregistered users couldnt lurk and use the code?
Exactly. We don't want the unregistered riff raff scooping up free codes, do we? ;)
