Reddit is now offering the option of using two-factor authentication (2FA) to all users following successful trials with moderators and beta-testers …
You need to enable 2FA on desktop, but it then works across desktop, mobile and third-party apps.
Two-factor adds more security to your Reddit account by requiring a second step to sign in. In this case, if you opt into 2FA, you’ll access a 6-digit verification code generated by your phone after a new sign-in attempt.
You’ll need an authenticator app which supports the TOTP protocol. Popular choices are Google Authenticator and Authy.
The official Reddit iOS app got a major update last month, with new mod tools, theater mode, chat and more.
