How to Set Up 2FA
Navigate to the Security Config Section
In BONKbot, go to Settings > Security Config and select the option to set up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).
Generate Your 2FA Key
BONKbot will display a QR code and a backup key. This information is required to link your account with your authenticator app.

If using Google Authenticator, tap the plus button in the bottom right of the app and either:
Select "Scan a QR code" and scan the QR code displayed in BONKbot.
Select "Enter a setup key" and manually enter the backup key provided, ensuring the type is set to Time-based
Enter the Verification Code
After adding BONKbot to your authenticator app, a 6-digit verification code will be generated. Return to BONKbot and enter this code to complete the setup process.
Confirmation
Once the correct code is entered, 2FA will be successfully enabled for your BONKbot account.
