Vivaldi 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

vivaldi.com Supported

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

2FA methods Vivaldi supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • Security key (U2F / WebAuthn)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Vivaldi account

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