How Do I Recover My Google Authenticator Key for Binance?

If you lose your phone or otherwise can’t get access to your Google Authenticator codes, you’ll need to use your backup codes to sign in. If you don’t have any backup codes, or if those don’t work, you’ll need to generate new ones.

If you use two-step verification, you’ll be asked for a code each time you sign in on a new device or from a new location. If you lose your phone or otherwise can’t get access to your Google Authenticator codes, you can use backup codes to sign in.

If you don’t have any backup codes and can’t sign in:

NOTE: WARNING: Before attempting to recover your Google Authenticator key for Binance, please be aware that this may compromise your security. It is recommended that you only attempt to recover your Google Authenticator key if absolutely necessary, and take extra precautionary measures to protect your account security.

Try to reset your Google Authenticator app. On your device, open the Settings app. Tap Apps or Application Manager (this may differ depending on your device).

Tap Google Authenticator. Tap Storage Clear data Reset app.

If resetting the app doesn’t work, generate new backup codes. Then, use one of those codes to sign in and update your 2-Step Verification settings with a new phone number or security key.

Once you’ve used a backup code to sign in, it becomes inactive. So if you need to use a second backup code, make sure to generate a new set of codes before using the second code.
