Understanding PIN (2FA) Security
PIN (2FA), or Two-Factor Authentication using a PIN, adds an extra layer of security to your Scopuly wallet. It requires you to enter a 4-digit PIN code to access the app or perform sensitive actions, even if someone has your device or password. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and protects your valuable assets.

1.Open the Side Menu:
Launch the Scopuly mobile application on your device.
On the home page, tap the menu icon in the upper left corner (represented by three horizontal lines).
