Two-factor Authentication (2FA) helps protect your account from unauthorized access by requiring you to enter an additional code when you log into your Image Browser. The additional codes are generated by an authenticator app installed on your Android or iOS mobile device.
Once you’ve opted into Two-factor Authentication, you’ll be prompted for a code every time you need to log in to your Image Browser, any time you use a different device, and if you’ve recently cleared your browser cache.
Setting up Two-factor Authentication
1. Visit the Security section of your account profile
2. Click “Enable Two-factor Authentication”
3. Follow the instructions on the screen
Recovery Code
After you enable Two-factor Authentication, you’ll be provided with a recovery code that will allow you to log into your account in the event that you don’t have access to your device with the authenticator app installed. It is extremely important that you save this recovery code in a secure (but memorable) location. If you don’t have access to your device or your recovery code, you will not be able to log into your PhotoShelter account.
