Set Up a Mobile Authentication App

Med-Stop allows you to use a mobile authentication app to generate security codes for sign-in and for certain security-protected tasks.

When configuring your Med-Stop security settings, you may choose an authentication app such as Google Authenticator, Twilio Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or a similar app.

To complete setup, scan the displayed QR code with your mobile device and enter the 6-digit code into the provided field.

Authenticator apps are generally more secure than SMS text message authentication. They can also be useful when traveling in areas without cellular service.

Most authenticator apps follow the same basic setup process: scan the QR code associated with your account, save the account in the app, and enter the numerical verification code during future sign-ins.

Supported Authenticator Apps

Google Authenticator, Twilio Authy, and Microsoft Authenticator are common mobile authentication apps that can be used for two-factor authentication.

After entering your username, approve the prompt sent to your phone. Your fingerprint, Face ID, or PIN provides the second layer of security.
