We found that the Last Pass app worked great and supported the 6-digit authentication at the time when this doc was created. Feel free to make your own choice for an app.

4\. In the authenticator app, tap to **Add New** and **Scan a QR Code**

5\. **Point your phone at your computer screen** to scan the barcode that appeared after you have toggled 2FA to **Yes**

6\. After you scan the code, take a look at your phone and enter the freshly generated code in the box below the code on your EZBiolink 2FA page.

Once done, you are all set. Next time you attempt to log into your EZBiolink account, you will be prompted to pull up your **Authenticator app** and enter a freshly generated code at the login.
