[All Platforms][Other] 2-Factor Authentication

[ThomasVH]

Spotify should, as a matter of good practice and safety, implement 2-step authentication.

Previously, Spotify enabled the option to log out other sessions other than the current session.

This would prevent hackers from stealing accounts, which would additionaly lead to less account hacks and less work for Spotify employees to assist in these cases.

please add 2fa to spotify, the security of spotify account are always at stake without 2fa being available to the consumers. It is pretty easy to hack a spotify account, I changed my password multiple times just for people to log in from different parts of the world. 2fa is needed on spotify

Why is this not a thing?

 Spotify has taken some excellent steps toward account security, but improving 2-step authentication would enhance safety and user trust even further.

Currently, Spotify offers standard login credentials, but incorporating more robust 2FA options—such as supporting multi-device authentication apps—would be a significant upgrade. This would allow users to secure their accounts even if they switch devices or need to recover access.

A stronger 2FA system would reduce account compromises and lighten the workload on Spotify’s support team when handling hacked accounts.

For instance, apps like Authenticator support multi-device syncing, backup, and cross-platform compatibility, making it easier for users to manage their security without fear of losing access.

Looking forward to seeing Spotify consider this update as part of its ongoing commitment to user safety!

My account was recently hacked into by 3 locations in the world (not me) and my plan changed without my knowledge. I contacted Spotify Support and John B was a great help.
I did ask him a question if there was a 2-F feature so that I can use it with Spotify and the authenticator app on my phone. He advised currently there is not. As such, I would like to make a suggestion to add so that other accounts, not just mine, could have that extra added security if they wish to use.
Thank you,
Val

Who's ready for the 10 year anniversary of asking for a basic security feature that almost every other service offers and still nothing? Get ready for the countdown while we continue to be ignored 🥳🥂🎆

@02browns: The day has actually been in my diary for a long time. 🤗😉

To protect our accounts against data breches and hacking, you need to allow 2fa.  If this isn't put into place soon I am going to delete my account and go back to Apple music because it is more secure. Numerous people I know have had people access their Spotify accounts because of this.

Crazy to think that spotify hasn’t added this yet while this idea is almost a decade old.

so happy that i moved to Youtube music with Youtube premium its a lot cheaper too and you only pay a few euros more for all the extra stuff!

AND IT HAS 2FA

I found this article and thought "at last". However, I couldn't find the settings in my account. I reread the article and realised it's for "creators".

@Spotify, you've obviously got the capability, even the code. Why won't you implement it for everyone else?

We're nearly in 2025!
