Authenticator App - Novaz

Stiftung Warentest 2FA Setup Guide

test.de Supported

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

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

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Stiftung Warentest and open your Stiftung Warentest 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 Stiftung Warentest 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 Stiftung Warentest account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Stiftung Warentest account

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