# Do I have to turn on two-factor authentication?

Yes. Two-factor authentication is mandatory on every account and every role. You cannot reach the app until you enroll an authenticator app, and you will be prompted for a code on future sign-ins.

After your first successful sign-in, CloseMagnet sends you to the setup screen at https://app.closemagnet.com/mfa/setup. Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (or enter the manual key), type the current 6-digit code into the 6-digit code field, and click Verify and activate. You then land on your dashboard.

On later sign-ins you enter your email and password, then a second screen asks for the current 6-digit code from your authenticator.
