How do I set up 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) on Tilt?

Choose Authenticator App or SMS — set up 2FA once and Tilt will ask for a code every login after that.

Quick answer

Tilt offers two 2FA options: an Authenticator App (Google Authenticator, Authy, Duo, etc.) or SMS text codes. You'll be prompted to set this up the first time you log in.

Who this applies to / Prerequisites

  • You log into Tilt with email and password (not enforced SSO).
  • If using SMS, the phone number in your Tilt profile must be a mobile line, not a landline.

Steps

  1. Log into Tilt with your email and password.
  2. When Tilt prompts you to set up 2FA, choose Authenticator App or SMS.
  3. Authenticator App: open the app, scan the QR code Tilt shows, then enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
  4. SMS: confirm the mobile number Tilt shows, then enter the code sent by text.
  5. Save. From now on, Tilt will ask for a 2FA code when you login.

What if it doesn't work

  • Not receiving your SMS code? Check your phone's messaging app for a Spam, Junk, or Unknown Senders folder. Newer phones (iPhone, Google Pixel, Samsung) often route texts from unknown numbers to a separate folder without showing a notification. The code may already be there — you just have to look.
  • Wrong phone number in Tilt? Contact Tilt Support to update it.
  • Authenticator App code rejected? Make sure your phone's clock is set to sync automatically. Authenticator codes are time-based and stop working if the clock drifts.

Limits and exceptions

  • 2FA requires a mobile number, not a landline.
