Setting Up Two Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security for your Statusbrew account. Whenever you log in to your account, after entering your email address and password, you will be asked for an authentication code from your smartphone using the Google Authenticator app.

Two-factor authentication can only be set up on the web version of Statusbrew, but when it is turned on, it will apply whenever you sign in to both the web and the Statusbrew mobile app.

How Do I Log In To My Statusbrew Account Once Two Factor Authentication (2FA) Is Enabled?

Once two-factor authentication is configured, any time you try to log in to Statusbrew on the web or on mobile, you get prompted for a verification code to verify your identity after you type in your password.
