Question

Why do I have to keep repeating my question? This software is awful, I have many years of experience in bookkeeping and Quickbooks is certainly not quick.

Stupid SMS or email codes - never heard of an authentication app. Terrible interface, very slow and clunky to use. Terrible software. I am glad I have avoided this crap for years and only use it now because a client insists. Within a year or two I will have persuaded them to move to accounting software which works simply and easily.

I understand your frustration about your experience with QuickBooks Online, peter.

 

Your account's security is our top priority. You may find SMS and email codes annoying when they keep popping up while logging into your account. This is the verification process and you can turn it off.

 

Let me show you how:

 

  1. Sign in to your Intuit account.
  2. From the left menu, select Sign In & Security.
  3. In the “Two-step verification” section, select Turn off.
  4. Enter the code, then select Continue.

 

Once this feature is disabled, you will only be asked to verify your account when you log in from a new device (PC or mobile), a new browser, or when you clear or reset your current browser's cached data. 

 

You can visit this link for additional instructions: Turn on or turn off two-step verification. It includes steps if you're using a different phone number.

 

I also want to help boost the performance of your QuickBooks account. QuickBooks Online uses browser cache and cookies to run faster. But sometimes these can also block web pages from loading and gets outdated which can cause issues.

 

You can clear the browser’s cache and cookies to fix them. Follow the steps to clear cache for your browser:

 

After clearing the cache, make sure to restart your browser for changes to take effect.
