A QR code can be used when available, but you can always add your account by signing in with your username and password. Select Sign in with Microsoft to add your account. In the Add account page, choose Personal account. On iOS, select the plus icon in the upper right. On Android, select Add account from the Customize and Control icon in the upper right. Open the Authenticator app on your mobile device. You can also turn it off if you no longer want to use it with your personal account. Go to the Two-step verification section and choose to turn the feature On. For example, the bottom of the page, select more security options.

On your computer, go to your Security basics page and sign in using your personal Microsoft account. You don't have to turn on two-factor verification to only use passwordless phone sign-in for your account, but we strongly recommend that you turn on two-factor verification for additional account security. You can add your personal Microsoft account by first turning on two-factor verification, and then by adding the account to the app. If you haven't done that yet, follow the steps in the Download and install the app article. Important: Before you can add your account, you have to download and install the Microsoft Authenticator app.
