F2Pool 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

f2pool.com Supported

Protect your F2Pool 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 F2Pool sign-in with 2FA is essential. F2Pool secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods F2Pool 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 F2Pool's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to F2Pool and open your F2Pool 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 F2Pool 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 F2Pool account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If F2Pool shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how F2Pool recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

Menu names on F2Pool can change — the official F2Pool 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.

How to recover your F2Pool account

If you lose access to your authenticator and F2Pool 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 F2Pool doesn't, or you didn't save them, use F2Pool's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
