Raindrop 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

raindrop.io Supported

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

Turning on 2FA for Raindrop adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone isn't enough to get in. Raindrop secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

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

  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Raindrop account

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