Does United support 2FA?
United does not currently support authenticator-app (TOTP) two-factor authentication. United does offer 2FA via email code, SMS text message, phone call and its own app — better than nothing, but an authenticator app is the more secure option if United adds it.
2FA methods United supports
- Email code
- SMS text message
- Phone call
- Proprietary app
United does not offer an authenticator-app (TOTP) option yet. Authenticator apps are safer than SMS, so it's worth requesting.
How to keep your United account secure
Use a long, unique password (a password manager helps), turn on any 2FA method United offers, and stay alert to phishing. If United adds authenticator-app support, you'll be able to use MS Authenticator App.
