Send yourself two backup codes

The codes combined grant access to your account. Send them to yourself using two different platforms.

Anyone with both codes will have full access! Don't share them and keep them safe.

Send yourself Code {n}

Send this code to yourself for example by email or messenger. Make sure you will find it, in case you need it.

Generating codes...

Did you send Code 1 to yourself?

Send yourself Code {n}

Send this code to yourself using another email or messenger. For your safety, both codes must be stored separately.

Did you send Code 2 with a different method than Code 1?

All set up?

You should now have both codes, stored as messages on two separate platforms.

If you lose your password or Login File, you can regain access by entering both codes in the login screen.
