Rev 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

rev.com Supported

Protect your Rev 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 Rev adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone isn't enough to get in. Besides an authenticator app, Rev also offers email codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience.

2FA methods Rev supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • Email code
  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 Rev's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Rev account

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