2FA methods Yandex.Disk supports#
- Proprietary app
Yandex.Disk does not offer an authenticator-app (TOTP) option yet. Authenticator apps are safer than SMS, so it's worth requesting.
How to keep your Yandex.Disk account secure#
Use a long, unique password (a password manager helps), turn on any 2FA method Yandex.Disk offers, and stay alert to phishing. See Yandex.Disk's official security documentation ↗. If Yandex.Disk adds authenticator-app support, you'll be able to use Authenticator App - Novaz.
How to recover your Yandex.Disk account#
If you lose access to your authenticator, most Yandex.Disk accounts are recovered with the backup or recovery codes you saved when you turned on 2FA — so store them somewhere safe, separate from your phone. If you didn't save them, use Yandex.Disk's account-recovery or support process to regain access (see the official Yandex.Disk documentation ↗). Saving your recovery codes when you enable 2FA is the single best way to avoid being locked out.
