Use 2FA

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) to add an extra layer of security to your Pulsetic account. 2FA requires a code from your authenticator app, along with your password, to log in.

Steps to Enable 2FA

Step 1: Navigate to 2FA Settings

1. Go to the Account page.
2. Click on the Security tab.
3. Locate the Two-Factor Authentication section.
4. Select the Enable button.

3. You will be presented with the following options:
   • QR Code: Scan the displayed QR code using your Google Authenticator (or any compatible authenticator) app.
   • Secret Key: Alternatively, manually enter the provided secret key (e.g., 4TE65YURSVGQW3RO) into your authenticator app.

Step 2: Set up Your Authenticator App

1. Pulsetic supports standard authenticator apps like Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, and others. If you don't have one installed on your smartphone, download one from your app store.
2. Follow the prompts within your authenticator app to complete the setup.

3. Enter the secret key or the code generated by your authenticator app into the Activate two factor authentication field and tap the Activate button.
4. Your authenticator app should now generate time-based codes for your Pulsetic account.

Disabling 2FA

1. If you ever need to disable 2FA (not recommended for security reasons), you can return to the 2FA tab in your Profile settings and tap the Disable button.
