2. Select Multifactor Options, and select the pencil icon under Action for the Multifactor authenticator application (such as Google Authenticator) you’d like to use.
3. Select Yes from the dropdown menu for Enabled.
4. Scan the QR barcode or type your Private Key into your authenticator app.
5. Then choose Update.
6. Enter the code from your authenticator application into LastPass.
