CoinTracking 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

cointracking.info Supported

Protect your CoinTracking account with two-factor authentication (2FA). Once enabled, signing in also requires a one-time code from your authenticator app — not just your password.

Crypto transactions can't be reversed, so protecting your CoinTracking sign-in with 2FA is essential. CoinTracking secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods CoinTracking supports

  • 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 CoinTracking's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to CoinTracking and open your CoinTracking 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 CoinTracking 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 CoinTracking account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

How to recover your CoinTracking account

If you lose access to your authenticator and CoinTracking 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 CoinTracking doesn't, or you didn't save them, use CoinTracking's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
