How to enable 2FA on Dropbox Sign
Dropbox Sign supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Dropbox Sign account.
Step-by-step setup
- 1
Sign in to Dropbox Sign and open your Dropbox Sign account security settings.
- 2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
- 3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Dropbox Sign displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
- 4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Dropbox Sign account.
- 5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes Dropbox Sign gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.
Menu names on Dropbox Sign can change — the official Dropbox Sign 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
