Set up two-factor authentication in 1Password

  1. Sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
  2. Click your name in the top right and choose My Profile.
  3. Click More Actions > Manage Two-Factor Authentication.
  4. Click Set Up App. You’ll see a square barcode (QR code).

    To save a backup of your two-factor authentication code, write down the 16-character secret next to the QR code and store it somewhere safe, like with your passport and Emergency Kit.

  5. On your mobile device, download and open the Microsoft Authenticator app and use it to scan the QR code. After you scan the QR code, you’ll see a six-digit authentication code.
  6. On 1Password.com, click Next. Enter the six-digit authentication code, then click Confirm.

 

Your 1Password account is now protected by two-factor authentication. To continue using your account on other devices or to sign in to it on a new device, you’ll need to enter a six-digit authentication code from your authenticator app.
