I can't "click" the "If you are on your mobile device click here... etc" I'm on an iPhone and have a TFA app installed and I'm using the chrome app

What two factor auth app are you using? It's possible that your app hasn't registered the association necessary for it to work (otpauth), but it is also possible that the link is broken.

I'm using authy 

I don't think authy supports it (at least, I don't get asked what app I should open otpauth URLs in, it just opens in Google Auth automatically, though neither app shows as having registered any URIs at all, so maybe GAuth is doing something weird).

EDIT: Appears I am mistaken, Google authenticator doesn't seem to support it now either. I'm fairly sure it used to...

I've used copy-paste method with Google Auth and mobile. I didn't even know if there was supposed to be some more simple way for it.

So does the link need fixing?

Unless I can find any use for it, the link will be removed in a future update.

Alright then so will you have an option to show the code so the people that enable the TFA from they mobile devices can copy  paste it manually to their TFA app?

The manual activation code should already be shown when you set it up:
