Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication (2FA) strengthens your account security by requiring two forms of identification: your password and a unique 6-digit code generated by your mobile device.

🛡️ Setting Up 2FA

Follow these steps to link your account to an authenticator app:

  1. Download an App: Install a mobile authenticator such as:
    • Google Authenticator (iOS/Android)
    • Microsoft Authenticator (iOS/Android)
    • Authy (iOS/Android/Desktop)
  2. Scan QR Code: Within your app, select "Add Account" and scan the QR code displayed on the SpendCraft setup screen.
  3. Sync & Verify: Enter the 6-digit code currently shown in your app into SpendCraft to complete the link.

🔑 Signing In with 2FA

Once 2FA is enabled, your sign-in flow will include one additional step:

  1. Enter your Email and Password as usual.
  2. When prompted, open your authenticator app on your mobile device.
  3. Enter the 6-digit code displayed on your authenticator app.
  4. Click Verify to gain access.

Code Expiration

Each 2FA code is time-sensitive and valid for only 30 seconds. If the code expires before you submit it, wait for the app to generate a new one.
