Question about 2FA and account security between Ente Auth and Ente Photos

Hi everyone, I have a question about account and 2FA setup for Ente

I’m using Ente Auth and recently got Ente Photos. Both apps share the same account and I’m a bit confused about the best way to handle security.

My goal is to make sure that someone who only knows my user and password (for example after a data breach) cannot access my photos. I’d like to add some kind of 2FA for Photos, but since Ente Auth and Ente Photos share the same account, I’m not sure how to do that. Using a different 2FA app for Photos wouldn’t really make sense, since I’m already using Ente Auth for that.

Am I misunderstanding something? What is the usual or recommended way to set this up securely, and are there any official docs or step-by-step recommendations you can point me to?
