Üzgünüz, bu metin sizin dilinizde mevcut değil.
Login verification is a feature that helps you keep your account more secure. Instead of relying on just a password, login verification introduces a second check to make sure that you and only you can access your Twitter account. After you enable this feature, you will need both your password and your phone to log in to your account. When you log in to twitter.com you will receive a text message with a login code (SMS users with a supported carrier), or a push notification (iOS and Android users).

Before you can enable login verification, you must:
Confirm your email address
Add a phone number to your account
If you're using an iOS or Android device, download the iOS or Android Twitter app.
Using SMS login verification
To set up SMS login verification:

Go to your Security and privacy settings on twitter.com and select the option to Send login verification requests to my phone.
When prompted, click Okay, send me a message.
If you receive our verification message, click Yes. (Note: you'll have to enter your password).
Now, when you log in to your account on twitter.com, a six-digit login code will be sent via text message to your phone. Enter the code when prompted to access your account.

Note: If you are currently logged in to Twitter on the web or on your mobile device (including any applications), you will not be logged out of any existing sessions once login verification is enabled. If you do choose to log out of your mobile device or other applications, you will need to log back in using a temporary password instead of your usual username and password combination.
To disable SMS login verification:

Go to your Security and privacy settings and select Don't verify login requests.
Save changes (Note: you'll have to enter your password).
Using login verification on Twitter for iOS or Android
To set up login verification on Twitter for iOS or Android:

From the Me tab on your device, tap on the gear icon and select Settings.
Tap your Account name to see the Security option.
Flip the "Login verifications" switch to On.
Tap Confirm to enroll.
Write down or take a screenshot of the backup code that was generated during signup and keep it somewhere safe; this will help you access your account if you do not have a Wi-Fi or active data connection for your phone, or if you lose your phone.
The next time you log in to your account on twitter.com, a push notification will be sent to your phone. Open the push notification to approve the login request. Once you approve, you will be immediately logged in to your account on twitter.com.

Note: You can also approve or deny your login requests from within the app by tapping Security, then tapping Login Requests. Pull down on the list to refresh for new requests. Requests will appear on this screen even if you did not receive a push notification.
To disable login verification for iOS or Android:

From the Me tab on your device, tap on the gear icon and select Settings.
Tap your Account name to see the Security option.
Flip the "Login verifications" switch to Off.
Tap Confirm to save your settings.
Note: You can also disable login verification from your Security and privacy settings by selecting Don't verify login requests.
Temporary passwords and backup codes
Temporary passwords

After you enable login verification for your account on the web, you'll need to use a temporary password to log in to Twitter on other devices or applications that require you to enter your Twitter password; you will not be able to log in using your usual username and password combination. For example, if you enabled login verification in your account settings on the web, and need to login to the Twitter for iOS app, you will need to use a temporary password to do so.

To generate temporary password:

Go to the Password tab of your account settings on twitter.com.
Click the Generate button.
Enter your current account password and hit Generate again.
When prompted to log in to your other device or application, enter your username and use the temporary password that you were provided.
Note: Temporary passwords will expire after one hour.
Backup codes

When you enable login verification through your iOS or Android Twitter app, a backup code is automatically generated for you. Write down or take a screenshot of this backup code. In the event that you lose your mobile device, you can use this backup code to login to your account on the web. Backup codes are not the same as temporary passwords, and cannot be used to log in to Twitter on mobile devices.

In the event that you need to generate a new backup code:

From the Me tab on your device, tap on the gear icon and select Settings.
Tap your Account name to see the Security option.
Tap Backup code.
Again, write the code down and keep it somewhere safe!
To use your backup code, log in to twitter.com with your usual username and password combination. When you see that a login verification request has been sent, click the link to enter your backup code. Enter the backup code you've generated to log into the site. (Pro tip: Be sure to generate at least one backup code ahead of time, before you need it!)

Note: You can generate up to five active backup codes at any given time. Be sure to use the codes in the order in which you generated them; using a code out of order will invalidate all previously generated codes.
