Password Don'ts

| john1990 | Personal info (name + birth year) |
| qwerty | Keyboard pattern |
| 1xbet2024 | Related to the service |

Security FAQ
I lost my phone with authenticator app. How do I log in?
Use one of your backup codes. If you don't have them, contact support with your ID verification to disable 2FA.
Can I have 2FA on multiple devices?
For authenticator apps, you can add the same account to multiple devices when setting up (scan QR code on both). SMS/email 2FA is tied to one number/address.
How do I disable 2FA?
Go to Settings โ Security โ Two-Factor Authentication โ Disable. You'll need to enter a 2FA code to confirm. Not recommended unless switching methods.
Is the 1xBet app safe?
Yes, when downloaded from official sources (App Store, Google Play, or official website). Never download from third-party sites.
