I don't know. Most people find dual authentication just as frustrating. I use Google Authenticator to provide dual authentication protection to many of my more sensitive account. The app is on my iPhone, so generally always readily available and convenient to use. I have tried to convince many people to use dual authentication and have a near zero-percent success rate. Most people will not bother unless made to by their company.
A password-management application like Lastpass or Robocopy is generally a better bet for most people. They only need to remember one secure password/passphrase that is only used for the password management application and then they generate a different randomly generated, long, complex password for each website, service, or app that requires one.
