Appodeal 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

appodeal.com Supported

Appodeal 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 Appodeal account.

A Appodeal account holds campaigns and client data, so 2FA keeps it out of the wrong hands. Besides an authenticator app, Appodeal also offers email codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience.

2FA methods Appodeal supports

  • Email code
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan Appodeal's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

  2. 2

    Sign in to Appodeal and open your Appodeal account security settings.

  3. 3

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

    Open Authenticator App - Novaz, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Appodeal displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your Appodeal account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If Appodeal shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how Appodeal recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

How to recover your Appodeal account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Appodeal gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Appodeal doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Appodeal's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
