Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

You can enable two-factor authentication to add an extra layer of security to your account.

Go to settings
- After logging in, navigate to the settings page (/settings)
Enable 2FA
- In the Security section, select "Enable Two-Factor Authentication"
Set up your authenticator app
- Install an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator
- Scan the displayed QR code with your app
Enter the verification code
- Type the 6-digit code shown in your authenticator app to complete setup

Logging In with 2FA

Enter your email address and password
Enter the 6-digit code generated by your authenticator app
Login complete
