Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a multi-layered security mechanism, designed to verify the identity of a user before granting them access to an account. It adds an additional layer of protection against unauthorized access.
2FA is particularly crucial for safeguarding your crypto assets and Binance account. Even if a hacker manages to obtain your password, they would still need the second factor (e.g., Google Authenticator) to gain entry to your account, making it considerably more challenging to breach your security.
How to enable Google Authenticator for 2FA on the Binance app?
Before you begin, please download and install the official Google Authenticator app on your mobile device.
1. Log in to your Binance app and tap the [Account] icon. Tap the profile section at the top and go to [Security].
2. Tap [Authenticator App] - [Enable].
3. You’ll see a QR code and a setup key. Copy the setup key. Do not tap [Next] before the Google Authenticator setup is complete.
Open your Google Authenticator app and tap the [+] button. Tap [Enter a setup key] and paste the copied code. Enter a name for the account and tap [Add] and it will be added to your Google Authenticator account.
4. Go back to the Binance app and tap [Next] to proceed.

Authenticator apps rely on the time set on your device to create the authentication code. If the time on your device does not match the time on your computer then the code will not work. Check the time and date on your phone and make sure they match the computer or device you are logging in from.
Note: If you sign in to your Google Account on any eligible phone, Google prompts is added as a method for 2-Step Verification automatically. Please also enable additional verification methods.
If you use Authenticator for 2-step verification to log in to your Google account but don't have access to Authenticator on your old device, you'll need to restore your Google account to get back in. To do this, go to https://accounts.google.com/signin/recovery.
