Google Authenticator

Google Authenticator enhances your phone's security by providing an additional layer of protection through two-step verification for your online accounts. When you sign in, you'll need to enter not only your password but also a unique code generated by the Google Authenticator app on your mobile device. This code can be generated even without a network or cellular connection, ensuring continuous security.

Key features of Google Authenticator include:

• Syncing with Google Account: You can sync your Authenticator codes to your Google Account, allowing access across your devices. This is particularly useful if you lose your phone.
• QR Code Setup: Easily set up your Authenticator accounts using a QR code, which is both quick and ensures accurate configuration.
• Multiple Account Support: Manage multiple accounts within the app, eliminating the need to switch between different applications for different accounts.
• Versatile Code Generation: Choose between time-based and counter-based code generation methods to suit your specific security needs.
• Account Transfer: Transfer accounts to new devices effortlessly using a QR code.

To use Google Authenticator with Google services, you must enable 2-Step Verification on your Google Account. Start the process at http://www.google.com/2step.
