Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection to your account by requiring a time-based verification code in addition to your password. We recommend using an Authenticator App for the most secure experience.

Step 1 – Choose “Authenticator App” 

When prompted to enable Two-Factor Authentication:

  • Select “Authenticator App” (recommended).
  • Click Generate QR Code.
This will display a unique QR code that links your LandLord account to your authenticator app.


Step 2 – Download an Authenticator App

You can use either of the following free apps available on the App Store or Google Play:

  • Google Authenticator
  • Microsoft Authenticator
Open your preferred app after installation.


Step 3 – Add a New Account

In your chosen authenticator app:

  1. Tap Add Code or Add Account.
  2. Choose Scan a QR Code (or “Scan QR Code”).
  3. Use your phone’s camera to scan the QR code displayed on your LandLord 2FA setup screen.

💡 If you can’t scan the code, choose Enter a setup key manually and type in the key shown on the screen.


Step 4 – Get Your Verification Code

Once scanned, your app will start displaying a 6-digit code that refreshes every 30 seconds.


Step 5 – Complete Setup
  • Enter the 6-digit code from your app into the verification field on the LandLord page.
  • Click Complete Setup.
That’s it! Your 2FA is now active. From now on, you’ll use your authenticator app to get a code each time you log in.
