You can use two-factor authentication (2FA) to secure your TimeTonic account.
With this option, a validation with your phone will be required to sign in to your account.

To set it up, go to your account settings via the profile icon at the top right of your screen.
In the account information section, you will find two-factor authentication:
When you tick the box, a pop-up will appear to configure the option:
- You will need to download an authenticator app; we recommend two.
- Open the app and scan the QR code.
- Enter the password the app gives you in TimeTonic.
Once two-factor authentication is active on your account, you will have a third element to fill in when you sign in.
In addition to your ID and password, you will need to provide a security code.
You will find this security code in the authenticator app you have chosen.
It is renewed at regular intervals, which makes it a strong temporary password to secure access to your TimeTonic account.
