Sign in with a new device

Got a new phone or tablet? We’ll walk you through how to set up your new device.

To sign in to your Robinhood account on a new device, you’ll need to use the following applicable instructions depending on whether you had Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) enabled on your old device, if you still have your old device, and whether you still have your backup code.

Regenerate a backup code

On your new device
  1. Open the Robinhood app and sign in with your email address and password
  2. When asked for your 2FA code, select Use Backup Code
  3. Enter your 2FA code
  4. To help keep your account secure, we recommend enabling 2FA again after you access your account on your new device to add back that extra layer of account protection.

Sign in on a new device if you have the old device

Passkeys (iOS only)

Passkeys by Apple allow you to sign in to Robinhood from all your Apple devices without using a password. It’s easier and more secure than using a password to sign in. Learn how to Set up passkeys.

Device approvals

Device approvals are an extra level of security meant to help keep your Robinhood account safe. Any time you update your account information or log in to Robinhood on a new device, we’ll send a notification to each of your mobile devices to verify it’s really you taking the action. You can either approve the notification to complete the action, or deny it to help secure your Robinhood account instantly. Learn how to Enable device approvals.

Sign in on a new device without the old device

Don’t have 2FA enabled

  3. Select Update phone number and follow the instructions
Note

When you change your phone number to log in, we'll ask you to verify your identity to help ensure your account's security.
