Why Should You Use 2FA with CloudHQ?
CloudHQ connects and syncs your data across multiple services like Gmail, Dropbox, Google Drive, and more. Securing your CloudHQ account is essential—2FA ensures that even if your password is compromised, no one else can log in without your unique verification code.

5. Scan the QR code with your Authenticator App
Open the Authenticator App, tap on the “+” button or “Scan QR Code”, and scan the code shown on your screen.
6. Enter the 6-digit OTP code
The app will generate a one-time password. Enter this code into the verification field on CloudHQ.
7. Confirm and Save
Click Verify or Submit to confirm activation. You’re done!
✅ Your CloudHQ account is now protected with 2FA using your Authenticator App.
