Two-Factor Authentication

2FA can now be enabled at the account level. See here.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is an extra layer of protection which significantly increases the security of your account. When you activate 2FA in your FeedOtter account, you will be required to enter a one-time code from your mobile device or email every time when logging in.
FeedOtter currently supports the following methods of 2FA:
  • Email
  • Authentication App (Google etc...)

    Click the button as seen below.
3. Choose the method of authentication you wish to use from the dropdown: Authentication App or Email.
We recommend the Google Authenticator App if that is the route you wish to go. It is available for iOS(opens in a new tab) as well as for Android(opens in a new tab).
