Features of AWS Mobile App
To have
access to the AWS Mobile App, we must have an existing AWS account. Simply
create an identity using the account credentials and select the region in the
menu. This app allows us to stay signed in to multiple identities at the same
time.
For
security reasons, it is recommended to secure the device with a passcode and to
use an IAM user's credentials to log in to the app. In case the device is lost,
then the IAM user can be deactivated to prevent unauthorized access.
Root accounts
cannot be deactivated via mobile console. While using AWS Multi-Factor
Authentication (MFA), it is recommended to use either a hardware MFA device or
a virtual MFA on a separate mobile device for account security reasons.
The
latest version is 1.14. There is a feedback link in the App's menu to share our
experiences and for any queries.
