## Is there a simple way to add or manage your primary phone number? Find out in our guide on how to set up the Primary Cell Phone Number.

The primary cell phone number is required when enabling Two-Factor Authentication. We also strongly recommend setting up the primary cell phone number so that you can easily restore access to your account in the future.

To set up or manage the primary cell phone number, go to the **Account Settings \> My Profile** section, open the **“Account Settings”** tab.
