# Authenticator app setup for WordPress login

To set up the authenticator app for your WordPress login:

1. On your phone, install Google Authenticator or Authy from the App Store or Play Store.
2. Log in at your site's login address. The site shows a QR code.
3. In the app, add an account and scan that QR code.
4. Enter the current 6-digit code the app shows to finish.

After setup, every future login asks for the current code from the app.
