Sign-in and security

Sign-in and security
Sign-in and security
  • Sign-in methods — a password, Google, or both. Connect Google to sign in with a click; you need a password set before you can disconnect it.
  • Google Drive — connect it to export a conversation as a Google Doc (see Messages). Think Projects only ever sees the documents it makes, never the rest of your Drive. Disconnect at any time; documents already made stay in your Drive.
  • Two-factor authentication — scan the QR code with an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy…), type the six-digit code, and save the ten recovery codes somewhere safe: each one gets you in once if you lose your phone. Your organisation may require this.
  • Change password — at least ten characters, and not something easy to guess; the meter tells you as you type. Changing it signs out every other device.
  • Where you are signed in — every browser and device with a session, with Sign out for each and Sign out everywhere else.
