Requirements

For TOTP to work properly, you first need to install an authenticator app on your mobile device. Here are some recommended apps.

Authenticator apps

• Authy
• Google Authenticator
• SmartKey
• Duo Mobile
• or any other app that supports TOTP

Enabling TOTP on Shifter

1. Log in to the Shifter dashboard ( https://go.getshifter.io/).
2. Go to “Account.”
3. Scroll down and click “Set up two-factor authentication.”
   

   

4. Click “Set up authenticator app.”
   
5. Scan the displayed QR code with your authenticator app, enter the generated code, and click “Enable.”
   

   

   • To test your TOTP setup, log out of the Shifter dashboard and log in again. Each time you log in, after you submit your username and password, your authenticator app generates a unique code. Enter the code generated by your authenticator app to complete the login.

   

That’s it!
