Turn on two-factor sign-in
Protect your LiteKeep account with an authenticator app: set it up from a QR code, save your 10 recovery codes, sign in with a 6-digit code, and turn it off if you need to.
Last updated 27 October 2026
On your Account page press Turn on two-factor, scan the QR code with an authenticator app and enter the 6-digit code it shows. You then get 10 single-use recovery codes, shown once: save them, because they are your way in if you lose the phone.
Set it up
- Install an authenticator app on your phone, any app that supports time-based codes.
- In the console open Account and press Turn on two-factor.
- Scan the QR code, then type the 6-digit code from the app to confirm.
- Save the 10 recovery codes: use Download .txt and keep the file somewhere other than your phone.
Signing in with it
After your password, enter the current 6-digit code, or one of your recovery codes. Each recovery code works once. You have 10 minutes to finish this step.
Turning it off
From Manage two-factor, enter your password and a current code. We recommend keeping it on: your account holds your balance and your servers.
If something goes wrong
- Codes are rejected: the time on your phone is probably off. Turn on automatic time in its settings and try again.
- New or lost phone: sign in with a recovery code, then turn two-factor off and on again to set up the new phone. That also gives you 10 fresh recovery codes.
- Running low on recovery codes: the page shows how many are left. Turning two-factor off and on again issues a new set.
