  • After 10 attempts, your phone-based two-factor authentication (2FA) option will be locked. You can still use any non-SMS 2FA methods you have already configured on your account.
  • Each phone call or text message counts as 1 attempt toward the 10-attempt limit. If you exceed this limit, you'll regain 1 attempt per hour.
  • By default, the 2FA process uses the text message option. To receive a phone call instead, select
    Get a Call
     on the 2FA screen. Selecting this option will use 2 of your attempts.
