User account 2FA set-up: Get 2FA app and the recovery codes

1. Download a 2FA app on your phone

We recommend the “Google Authenticator” or “2fas” app, available for iOS and Android in the respective app stores.

2. Store recovery codes

You can recover your account using one of these codes in case you loose access to your 2FA app.

You should copy and store these codes in a secure place.

Scan the QR code displayed in the app in order to connect your 2FA app to your Y42 user account.

4. Enter the code shown and activate

Let your 2FA app generate an one-time-password as activation code and provide it in the Y42 app.
