Step 3. Enter Your Phone Number

Select your聽Country聽from the drop-down list for the country code and type in your phone number.

Use the number of your smartphone that you'll have with you when you're logging in to a Duo-protected service. Double-check that you entered it correctly, check the box, and click Continue.

Step 4. Choose Ownership via Passcode/Phone Call

Next, you will be asked to confirm ownership of your phone number. Duo will send you a one-time passcode to verify your device. Once you provide the passcode, you will be prompted to download the Duo Mobile app. You can also search for the app directly from your smartphone; search for聽Duo Mobile聽in the Apps store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android). Follow the platform-specific instructions on the screen to聽.

After installing the app, return to the setup window and click聽I have Duo Mobile installed.

Do NOT delete the Duo Mobile app after completing the 2FA Setup. You need the Duo Mobile app for two-step verification to work on that device.

Step 5. Scan QR Code to Activate Duo Mobile

Activating the app links it to your account so you can use it for authentication.

On iPhone and Android devices, activate Duo Mobile by scanning the QR code with the app's built-in QR code scanner or simply scan it with your smartphone's camera. Follow the platform specific instructions for your device:

Step 6 (Optional). Add Another 2FA Device

You can also add an additional 2FA device (i.e. hardware token, additional phone, tablet). If you do not want to add any other devices, select "I don't want to add more devices" to continue.

Step 7. Congratulations!

Helpful tip: Enable the 7-day "Remember Me" option by selecting "Yes, this is my device" at login time to reduce how often 2FA is required on a particular trusted device. Never enable this option on public or shared devices.

If you need assistance or experience login problems after 2FA is activated, please contact askit@yorku.ca or your local IT support group.
