IDMe Authenticator

IDMe Authenticator adds a second sign-in factor to an IDMe account using generated codes or supported approval notifications.

Our take

Consider when the account requires this authentication method

On-device codes provide an alternative to eligible push approval.

Keep in mind: It does not replace account enrollment or recovery; never approve an unexpected request, and a second factor reduces risk without guaranteeing an account cannot be compromised.

What you can do

  • Generate time-based one-time codes
  • Approve or reject supported sign-in prompts
  • Use eligible mobile security-key options

Good for

  • Users securing a supported IDMe account

Consider alternatives for

  • Users expecting a universal identity-verification service without setup

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 17.0.
  • It does not replace account enrollment or recovery; never approve an unexpected request, and a second factor reduces risk without guaranteeing an account cannot be compromised.

Privacy & permissions

Authentication codes and device access are security-sensitive; protect the phone and keep recovery methods under the account’s official process.
