  1. 1

  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your lexoffice account

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