Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/bitwarden/android/issues/382

I updated my security by adding two factor authentication to my account, but I had forgotten about it. So I was trying quite a while to find out why the app couldn't sync to my web vault. Moreover I realised that for a long time I was using an old version of my web vault as all the newest passwords were not synced.

The app itself didn't offer any warning that my information was updated so I could log in again from the app but it was working as usually, without of course having synced to the vault.

I don't think that this is the intended behaviour, is it? After the information gets updated I guess the app is supposed to alert the user or maybe log out, prompting him to log in again. At the very least a message should pop up that the security information has changed.

v2.0 has some improvements to log the user out on certain security events.
