I added an authenticator to my account so that I could use the Group Finder on WoW, but the game is still telling me I need to attach an Authenticator and “SMS Protect” - but there’s no option to add that anywhere. Its not on my battle net account settings, in the app, or on the launched. I already have a phone number attached to my account.
Why won’t you let me use your game even though I’ve already downloaded your silly app? I pay so much for this game and for so long, but you can’t fix simple inconveniences like this? What the hell?

The actual solution was just that Blizzards services have lag, so even after adding my phone number and an Authenticator it still took about an hour to be able to create custom LFR groups.
