Hello,My problem is this: Whenever I try to sign in to my Firefox account, it asks me to enter a security code from 'your authentication app' in order to finish signing in.
I don't know what app this is referring to. I checked Google authenticator and Microsoft authenticator apps and neither of them have Firefox on them. These are the only two authenticator apps I've ever used. Is there a special Mozilla authentication app that I'm supposed to be aware of?
In order to successfully log in, 3 times I had to use a recovery code from the list of codes on a pdf I was initially given. I don't want to eventually get locked out of my account.

Using a compatible authenticator, scan the QR code with the authenticator, or manually enter the QC code number in the MFA registration screen. A Time-based One-time Password (TOTP) code generates and displays within the authenticator application along with your associated ServiceNow instance name and username.
