Why do new devices always have to be verified when logging in to WeChat?

This is the account protection function that WeChat automatically opens. Security authentication is required to log in to a new device. There are three verification methods: 1, code scanning verification; 2. SMS verification; 3. Friend-assisted verification.

The following details the steps of the following three ways:

First, scan code verification:

This verification method needs to use the WeChat of the old device for code scanning verification.

Step 1: Click to start verification.

Step 2: Click to scan the QR code to verify.

Step 3: Open the WeChat scan code of the old device and pop up the window. Click Ignore and scan the code again.

Step 4: Click Authorization, and the login restriction can be lifted at this time.

Scan code verification sometimes it may happen that the old mobile phone can't scan code verification. We can change other verification methods. If it cannot be verified, you can follow the official account of Tencent Customer Service WeChat on WeChat, and ask the manual customer service to verify the face according to the customer service prompts.

Second, SMS verification.

If you choose SMS verification, you can use the mobile phone number bound by WeChat to send SMS for verification.

Step 1: Click to start verification.

Step 2: Click on SMS to verify.

Step 3: Click Send SMS Now to pop up a prompt box, and click OK to jump to the SMS sending page.

Step 4: Click I have sent SMS. Then click OK, and the login restriction can be lifted at this time.

However, sometimes the mobile phone can't receive the verification code. There may be the following situations:

1. If the number of short messages obtained exceeds the limit, you can try again the next day.

2. SMS is intercepted by mobile phone security software;

3. Contact the operator to verify whether the mobile phone card is abnormal;

4. If WeChat is not bound to a mobile phone, you can't receive the verification code, so you can only choose other verification methods.

Third, friend-assisted verification.

Step 1: Click to start verification.

Step 2: Click to invite friends to verify.

Step 3: Contact 2 or more WeChat friends and send the page verification code to our WeChat.

Step 4: Prompt that you have passed the security verification, and click "Finish" to remove the login restriction.

There may be the following two questions about friend-assisted authentication:

1. Friend verification assistance failed: in this case, one of the invited friends failed, or the wrong information was filled in when the friend verification assistance was performed. At this time, you can confirm whether the following contents are correct with your friends, or contact your frequent WeChat friends for assistance.

2. No friend authentication assistance: you can choose other authentication methods. If it cannot be verified, you can follow the official account of Tencent Customer Service WeChat on WeChat, and ask the manual customer service to verify the face according to the customer service prompts.

To sum up the above methods, code scanning verification is the fastest, but sometimes logging in to a new device is because the old device can't log in, so how to scan the code? SMS verification is the most convenient. Generally, WeChat is now bound to mobile phones. This method is the most convenient and basically there will be no problem. Friend-assisted verification is more troublesome. Although it is to contact two friends, friends need to contact frequently. How to calculate frequent contact depends on the system.

Many people will find it troublesome to log in to new devices. In fact, this is understandable. If it is easy to log in, is the account prone to risks?
