2-Step Verification on Multiple Devices

Can Square make it so that I can use the authentication app on more than one of my devices, or at least a combination of my phone number and the authentication app? It’s hard to be limited to only one way to be able to verify since I can do it with other applications besides Square.

Hey @agapelove,

Welcome to the Community.

Great news! You can add multiple phone numbers to provide more options when receiving the verification code. However, only one authentication app can be used for two-step verification at a time. For example, you cannot use both Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator for two-step verification associated with one singular account.

Thanks! I'll try use two different phone numbers instead.
