Confirm it's you" on a new device

Why we ask for extra checks when you log in somewhere new.

When you log in on a device we don't recognise, we may ask you to:

• Approve from your signed-in device: tap the prompt on your other phone.
• Enter an email code.
• Use a passkey or an 8-digit backup recovery code.

Tick Trust this device for 90 days to skip the check on normal sign-ins. If you get a prompt you didn't start, tap Deny. Someone may know your password, so change it.
