Introducing the Thomson Reuters Authenticator: one app to verify your identity to access to Thomson Reuters software, providing an additional layer of security when signing in, helping you protect your data.

The easy-to-use design makes it simple. If you’ve enabled multi-factor authentication for any of your Thomson Reuters software, logging in to that software will trigger the Authenticator app to notify you on your device. Simply press approve (or use Face ID / Touch ID) to complete the sign-on process, or press ignore if you’re not trying to access the software at the time.

FEATURES DESIGNED FOR BAKERS • Lock Screen Timers: Sourdough takes time. Start a bulk fermentation or autolyse timer, leave the app, and track your progress right from your iPhone's Lock Screen via Live Activities. • Step-by-Step Flow: Never lose your place. One clear instruction per screen so you always know exactly what to do next. • The Science Explained: Integrated Scientific and Sensory notes explain the biological mechanism behind every step of our flagship protocols. • Complete Privacy: No accounts to create.
