Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Duo Prompt Display Issues

Some privacy and security features, especially on Apple devices, prevent the Duo Universal 2-factor prompt from working correctly. For example, a blank screen appears after the password is accepted, but the prompt to text or notify doesn't appear.

Ad Blockers

Some ad blockers can interfere with the Duo prompt. Disable your ad blocker and try again. If the Duo prompt displays correctly after that, you can leave the ad blocker disabled or try to adjust your ad blocker settings to get it working alongside Duo.
