How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your Diarize Me account.

Written by Mark Raa

When 2FA is enabled, you will be asked to enter a one-time PIN (OTP) sent to your mobile number whenever you sign in. This helps protect your account even if someone else obtains your password.

Before You Start

Make sure that the mobile number saved on your Diarize Me profile is correct and that you have access to that mobile phone. Your 2FA verification codes will be sent to this number.

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication

  1. Sign in to Diarize Me.

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Select Login Details.

  4. Check that your mobile number is correct. This is the number that will receive your 2FA verification codes.

  5. Toggle on the SMS verification switch.

  6. Enter your existing Diarize Me password.

  7. Click Send Verification Code.

  8. Diarize Me will send a one-time PIN (OTP) to your mobile number.

  9. Enter the verification code when prompted.

  10. Once the code has been successfully confirmed, Two-Factor Authentication will be enabled on your account.

Signing In with 2FA

Once 2FA has been enabled, signing in works slightly differently.

You will still enter your email address and password as usual. Diarize Me will then send a one-time PIN to your registered mobile number.

Enter this PIN on the login screen to complete the sign-in process.

Important

Because your registered mobile number is used to receive your verification codes, it is important to keep this number up to date.

Two-factor authentication provides additional protection for your Diarize Me account and is strongly recommended for all users.
