GateHub Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Hello everybody, to secure your accounts we urge all our users to NOT reuse their passwords and to turn on two-step authentication. You are strongly advised to set up 2-factor authentication (2FA). This is an additional security measure to ensure you are the only one who can access your wallet. Below are the instructions on how to set up 2FA. Download the Authy or Google Authenticator app to your mobile device. Login to your GateHub account and navigate to settings -> security -> 2FA and turn it on. Open your authentication app and scan the on-screen QR code. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the process. Once 2FA is enabled, you will be prompted to input the verification code generated by the authentication app on your mobile device. This step will provide a higher level of security for your account. klasu, T8493 and Malloy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulo Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I did it long time ago, but I always wondered what happens if I lose the phone? I have only Ripple Accounts and their secrets, but still can be annoying... rootvegetable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you buy a new phone simply re-install the App and all accounts will be synchronized back. Google Authenticator App addresses this here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1066447?hl=en tulo and faz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetHerRip Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) Download the Authy or Google Authenticator app to your mobile device. Login to your GateHub account and navigate to settings -> security -> 2FA and turn it on. Open your authentication app and scan the on-screen QR code. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the process. The page says its off, there is no place to turn it on or am I missing something?

It's been a while, but I had to do two things - in addition to using authy, I had to download and install a qr scanner for it all to work together.

Thanks Hi, I input the code, it shows saving for like a split second and then that the code was wrong.

metalcaptain Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I changed the device and I need to re-read the QR code to log in. But the QR code does not appear when logging in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namini Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) metalcaptain I replied to you on the other thread. It's not as simple as that. You should have a google authenticator recovery code, but probably you didn't save it? You can also look at: https://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-move-google-authenticator-to-a-new-device/ https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1187538?hl=en or you can try to contact Gatehub.
