Get an authenticator app
Before you can use two-factor authentication with your 1Password account, you’ll need to install an authenticator app on your mobile device:
Although 1Password can be used to store one-time passwords for other services where you use two-factor authentication, it’s important to use a different authenticator app to store the authentication codes for your 1Password account. Storing them in 1Password would be like putting the key to a safe inside the safe itself.
Set up two-factor authentication
To turn on two-factor authentication:
- Sign in to your account on 1Password.com.
- Click your name in the top right and choose My Profile.
- Click More Actions > Manage Two-Factor Authentication.
- Click Set Up App. You’ll see a square barcode (QR code).To save a backup of your two-factor authentication code, write down the 16-character secret next to the QR code and store it somewhere safe, like with your passport and Emergency Kit.
- On your mobile device, open your authenticator app and use it to scan the QR code. After you scan the QR code, you’ll see a six-digit authentication code.
- On 1Password.com, click Next. Enter the six-digit authentication code, then click Confirm.
Your 1Password account is now protected by two-factor authentication. To continue using your account on other devices or to sign in to it on a new device, you’ll need to enter a six-digit authentication code from your authenticator app.
Tip
After you set up two-factor authentication, if you have a U2F security key, like YubiKey or Titan, you can use it as a second factor with your 1Password account.
View and manage authorized devices
To view your authorized devices, sign in to your account on 1Password.com. Then click your name in the top right and choose My Profile.
To manage an authorized device, clicknext to it. You’ll find these options:
- Deauthorize Device: Your account will be removed from the device.

Unity delta time. What Is Two-Factor Authentication?
Two-factor authentication has emerged as a way to go beyond the password and add even more security to the accounts we need to protect. Two factors are always stronger than one, and here at LastPass we’ve always recommended two-factor authentication for optimal security.
Two-factor authentication has emerged as a way to go beyond the password and add even more security to the accounts we need to protect. Two factors are always stronger than one, and here at LastPass we’ve always recommended two-factor authentication for optimal security.
The first “factor” is typically a username and password that the user enters. The second factor is typically something the user has (like a generated code), something the user is (like a fingerprint), or even somewhere the user is. Requiring both is what adds additional security to an account. Even if the password for an account is compromised, an attacker would be thwarted in their attempt to access that account without the additional login data.
LastPass was one of the first password managers to offer two-factor authentication integration and we currently support 15 different options. Now we’re adding another option that’s convenient and easy for LastPass users! Between the stops sandi toksvig.
