I setup my 2FA password a couple of years ago and have forgotten it now. How can i reset it, while being still logged into the WebA session?
Currently, there is no way to do this in the WebA app.
According to the docs, https://core.telegram.org/api/srp#password-reset
this can be done if we have an active session (i do have the webA session), but this is not doable in the web app A at the moment, as it asks for the 2fa password first.
Please implement resetting 2FA as a priority, as users in India might lose access to their telegram accounts despite still owning their phone numbers, as per an upcoming law requiring "sim-binding", which requires telecommunication platforms (Telegram has been tagged as such) to logout web users every 6 hours and reverify with OTP.
Steps to reproduce
Be an existing WebA-only logged in user with 2FA and without email verified.
