  2. Scan the pairing QR code with the scanner inside the Allthenticator app.
  3. Confirm the prompts, then lock your computer and unlock it with your phone to test.

<aside> ⚠️

Don't use your phone's regular Camera app. It opens the app store instead of pairing.

Doors

Your organization must give you door access first.

  1. Turn on Bluetooth and open the app.
  2. Walk up to a door you're authorized for.

How the door unlocks depends on your organization's settings.

Websites

Each website needs its own setup. Installing the app doesn't turn it on everywhere.
