Add a device

You can be signed in to Mnemonica on several devices at the same time: your phone on set, your laptop at home, a computer at the office. Each device, and each browser, has its own session. Enable biometrics in the Mnemonica app on your phone. Then your phone makes your laptop strong too: scan the QR code on the laptop with the app.

To open Strong Projects on a device, that device needs a strong session. Add each device one time, and it gets its own strong method: a passkey on a computer, or the Mnemonica app where biometrics is enabled. After that, the device signs you in with a strong session in one tap. You do not need your phone to scan a QR code each time.

More strong devices also protect you. If you lose one, sign in with another and remove the lost one. You do not need a reset.

A device that is already strong approves the new one. A strong device is a computer with your passkey, or a phone where biometrics is enabled in the Mnemonica app. Only your strong devices can approve, so a person who gets into your email cannot add a device of their own.

About the one-time codeCopy Anchor Link

• The code works for a few minutes and one time only.
• The code belongs to your account.
• The new device shows whose account it is. Make sure that it is yours before you confirm.
• The device that shows the code tells you: Mnemonica will never ask you for this code. Do not give the code to anybody.
