# Securing Your Google App Account: Password and 2FA

> Protect your Google app account with a strong password, two-factor authentication, and active session management. Learn how to respond to suspicious activity.

Keeping your account secure protects your projects, data, and teammates. The app provides several tools to help you control who can access your account and from where.

## Change your password

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Security settings">
    Go to **Settings → Security**, or click your avatar → **Settings** → **Security**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click 'Change Password'">
    Enter your current password, then type and confirm your new password.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Update Password**. You'll receive a confirmation email.
  </Step>
</Steps>

**Password requirements:**

* Minimum 8 characters
* At least one uppercase letter
* At least one number or special character (`!@#$%^&*` etc.)

<Tip>Use a password manager to generate and store a strong, unique password for this account.</Tip>

## Two-factor authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication adds a second layer of protection. Even if someone learns your password, they can't log in without your second factor.

### Enable 2FA

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Settings → Security">
    Click **Enable Two-Factor Authentication**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Scan the QR code">
    Open your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, or similar) and scan the QR code displayed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter the verification code">
    Type the 6-digit code from your authenticator app to confirm setup.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save your backup codes">
    Download and store your backup codes somewhere safe. You'll need these if you lose access to your authenticator app.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Disable 2FA

Go to **Settings → Security → Two-Factor Authentication** and click **Disable**. You'll need to enter a current 2FA code or a backup code to confirm.

<Warning>Disabling 2FA reduces your account security. Only do this if you're switching to a new authentication method.</Warning>

## Active sessions

The app tracks all active login sessions. To review them:

1. Go to **Settings → Security → Active Sessions**.
2. Review the list of devices and locations.
3. Click **Revoke** next to any session you don't recognize.
4. Click **Revoke all other sessions** to sign out of all devices except your current one.

## Suspicious activity

If you notice unexpected logins, items you didn't create, or other unusual behavior:

1. Immediately change your password.
2. Revoke all other active sessions.
3. Review your email address and recovery options for unauthorized changes.
4. [Contact support](/support/contact) and describe what you observed.

## Account recovery

If you're locked out of your account:

* **Forgot password** — Click **Forgot Password** on the login page and follow the email instructions.
* **Lost 2FA device** — Use one of your backup codes on the 2FA prompt screen. If you've lost those too, contact support.
