Using Robinhood on Mobile
The Robinhood mobile app is available for both Android and iOS. Logging in through your device is easy and secure, especially when biometric options like fingerprint or Face ID are enabled. Always download the app from trusted sources such as the App Store or Google Play Store.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Two-factor authentication adds an essential layer of protection to your login process. With 2FA, even if someone has your password, they can’t access your account without a secondary code.
How to Enable 2FA:
- Go to Account Settings
- Select Security
- Toggle on Two-Factor Authentication
- Link to an Authenticator App (such as Authy or Google Authenticator)
Make sure to back up your 2FA setup codes in case you switch phones or lose access to your authenticator app.
Common Login Problems
Users may occasionally experience issues signing in. Here’s how to resolve them:
- Forgot Password: Click "Forgot your password?" and follow the reset instructions via email.
- Locked Out: Too many failed attempts? Wait a few minutes and try again, or reset your password.
- 2FA Issues: Ensure your device’s time is correct; otherwise, time-based codes may fail.
- App Crashing: Reinstall the app, clear cache, and ensure you're using the latest version.
Best Practices for Login Security
Take control of your digital safety with these login tips:
- Use a unique password for Robinhood (not used on other sites).
- Change your password every 3–6 months.
- Enable login alerts via email or push notification.
- Never share your credentials with anyone — Robinhood will never ask for your password.
- Avoid logging in over public Wi-Fi networks without a VPN.
Recognizing Phishing Attempts
Phishing emails and fake login pages can trick users into revealing login details. Here’s how to stay safe:
- Always log in directly at robinhood.com.
- Ignore unsolicited emails or texts asking for your login info.
