My authenticator app generates codes that don't work.

Causes

First, check to see that your phone time matches the time on your computer. The authenticator is time-stamped, so if the two do not match it will not work.

Solutions

  • Each code is only valid for a short period of time. Try using a new code.
  • Make sure the time on your phone matches the time on your computer.
On Android
- Go to the Main Menu on the app
- Select Settings
- Select Time correction for codes
- Select Sync now

On iOS (Apple iPhone):

- Go to the iPhone Settings App. (your phone settings area)
- Select General
- Selec Date & Time
- Enable Set Automatically
- If it’s already enabled, disable it, wait a few seconds and re-enable

Also, check if the time on your computer is set correctly.

  • Connect to Issabel from Chrome.
  • Add your key again on your Authenticator app, verifying that you correctly entered your secret key, go to Multi-Factor_Authentication_(MFA).
