"View on Mobile" button automatically creates Authentication Token?

Hi fellow Splunkers,

i recently came across an authentication Token created by splunk-system-user and i had no clue where this token came from and my splunkadmin colleagues didnt created the token either.

Is it a feature/normal that Splunk will generate a Token every single time you click on "view on mobile" from the menu of a xml dashboard?

Can we turn it off? 
We dont want users to be able to freely create an infinite amount of authentication tokens, because it would make overview of tokens way harder and we dont have configured the secure gateway.

As Workaround i now used CSS to hide the "View on Mobile" button.

.view-mobile {
    display: none !important;
}
