Trusted Devices Settings

What is a Trusted Device?

A Trusted Device can be used if you have 2-Factor Authentication enabled. If you sign in on a trusted device, you will not be prompted to enter your 2FA code. A trusted device is any computer, phone or tablet that isn't shared amongst other people and you trust is secure.

Add a Trusted Device

If you haven't already added your current device, you can add it as a Trusted Device from the settings page. There will be a blue box with an identifier for the current device and a green + Add Device button. Click on that button to add the device.
