Jason Hassell thank you for that answer!! Helped completely. Why couldn’t xero have given such a simple solution to all the above people.

My account was already using 2FA. I managed to smash my old device’s screen and now the screen doesn’t work. I have an alternative device but despite it being linked to an account via android, the 2FA account s do not transfer automatically.

All the suggestions above assume that you can access your account because your old device isn’t ‘destroyed’. Bad language aside above , there seems to be no option to acquire a new QR code without having your previous device fully operation allowing access to your account. Thus, I appear to be locked out my account permanently. I think the QR code has now gone. They now have Multi factor authentication, you need to load on your phone an app called Xero Verify. You will see on the page a section that says Additional Security, follow the prompts I think the missing link for some has been the ” My Xero ‘ step where all your company profiles are located Karen, but changing options here asks you to first authenticate using the authenticator!

I don’t think this is a solution. I have downloaded the verification app to my phone, I am sitting looking at my xero account on my laptop, there is no QR code anywhere and where the hell do you get a set up key for the app??? This is MOST frustrating Anyone else finds that the security code takes at least 5 minutes to arrive in their inboxes? And it’s nothing to do with my connection as it is good. Kelly M, clearly Xero is not listening to their customers!

This is an ongoing frustration! Why not have a simple method of setting this back up or at least give us some clear instructions!

Super sick of this as the battery on my old phone is dead and the Xero authentication is literally the start up page and you only have an option to click on the other area to create a code. How do you set up a new phone with the app? I transferred all the data over to my new phone with the same phone number and still have no clear way to get this set up!!! I had this problem but it’s really easy once you know. Click on that, you will have to authenticate yourself though but can use the 6 digit code that appears on the xero verify app on your phone.

After entering that the QR code appears for you to scan. Go back to the Authy app, click on the plus icon to add an account. Paste the code or key and click Add Account. As Xero doesn’t appear on the options to choose from, we need to create it. Select one of the options, for example Generic Blue , then to rename it type ‘Xero’ in the Account Name field at the top of the screen. Select 6-digit as the token length, and click Save. Once Authy is generating codes, return to Xero and click Enter Code.

Enter the six digit code from the Authy app and click Confirm. Ask our community of customers, accountants and bookkeepers. Skip to main content Search icon Search Xero Central.

This article is for everyone who uses Xero. When setting up MFA, you can install the authenticator app on your computer, but it works best if you use your smartphone instead.

Multi-factor authentication MFA provides a second layer of security that stops anyone else accessing your Xero account, even if they know your password. For security reasons, we recommend you install the authenticator app on a different device to the one you use to access Xero. This is especially important if you share the device you use to access Xero with others. To avoid this, we recommend installing the authenticator app on your smartphone or tablet. You can use an authenticator app of your choice but we recommend Xero Verify.

It’s the only app using push notifications to log in to Xero. With push notifications, a message pops up on your smartphone or tablet. Xero Verify only sends notifications when you’re logging in to Xero. If you don’t have a smartphone, or can’t use your smartphone for MFA, you can install an authenticator app such as Authy Authy website , to your laptop or desktop computer. To set up MFA you’ll need to access your Xero organisation using a web browser.

You can’t set up MFA using the Xero mobile app. New Purchase Order Triggers when a new purchase order is created or enters a status for the first time. New Quote Triggers when a new quote is created. New Expense Claim Receipt Triggers when you add a new draft expense claim receipt.

When you get a new phone you need to disable your existing 2SA set up, before it can be set up for your new phone.

Maya, that answer isn’t good enough. I can’t find the bloody QR code in Xero. I can’t disable my existing 2SA set up – the original phone is gone. This is frustrating. I just want to scan the new QR code. It needs to be way more prominent within the web version of Xero. The problem is that what Maya has said is correct, but to find it in the Xero help documents, you’ll go old and gray going around in circles.

Please put a clear “What to do if you can’t find the QR code” section – ie then explain that if you are setting up a new app you need to disable the whole thing and start again. This thread is the only place I could find it and I was about to email support for something that could have been in the help docs. Please update it. Thanks for backing me up Donna. Maya, for Pete’s sake, make the QR code easy to find!

I followed those instructions in the link you provided and it got me nowhere.
