2-step verification (also known as 2FA) is an extra safety measure to protect your account. When activated, you'll have to verify every sign-in attempt using the Google Authenticator app. Here's how to set it up.
-
On the dashboard, at the top right corner, click the icon that shows the first letter of your display name.
-
Select Account. The Account settings screen opens.
-
Click the Activate 2-step verification link. An email is sent to you to verify your request.
-
In the email, click the Verify button. The Set up 2-step verification screen opens.
-
Follow the steps on the screen. You'll need to download and install the Google Authenticator app on your mobile device and then open it. Click Next when ready.
-
On the Step 3 screen, scan the QR code on the screen with the Google Authenticator app. Once scanned, it generates a verification code for you to enter on the Evercast screen.
-
Enter the verification code on the Evercast Step 3 screen.
You've enabled 2-step verification! Now moving forward, every time you sign in to Evercast, you'll be prompted to scan the QR code and verify the sign-in attempt on your Google Authenticator app. Google Authenticator will display a code that you will then enter into the Evercast page on your browser.
