Enabling two-factor authentication
3 min read Updated April 2026
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds a second step to sign-in: after your password, you enter a short code from an authenticator app. Even if your password leaks, your account stays protected.
Turning it on
- Go to Settings → Security.
- Choose Enable two-factor authentication and confirm your password.
- Scan the QR code with an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy, etc.).
- Enter the 6-digit code to confirm, then save your recovery codes somewhere safe.
Recovery codes
Recovery codes are one-time backups for when you don't have your phone. Store them in a password manager — each works once, and you can regenerate the set at any time from the Security page.
If you lose both your device and your recovery codes, contact support to verify your identity and regain access.
