1. Log into your account on github.com | |
2. Click on your avatar (top right corner) > Settings. | |
3. In the left sidebar, go to Security. You will see "Two Factor Authentication" on top of the page. | |
4. You can now choose either using SMS or an Authentication app to do this. I personally have used both SMS and Google Authenticator at points and both work fine. I hear authy also works well. | |
5. You'll have to enter the code you generated using your chosen method and confirm. | |
6. You should be all done. | |
Let me know if you need any help! I've written these up mostly from memory, there might be something missing. Let me know. |
