The "Account Recovery" screen is a security feature that appears at specific time intervals, such as quarterly or annually, depending on the application you are using. Its primary purpose is to ensure that your account remains accessible in case you forget your password or need to verify your identity through Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).
When this screen is displayed, you will have the opportunity to review and update your recovery information. This typically includes:
Adding or updating phone numbers: These numbers can be used for 2FA verification codes.
Providing or updating recovery email addresses: This ensures that you can receive a password reset link if you loose access to your primary email.
Keeping this information up to date is crucial for maintaining account security and preventing unauthorized access. If you skip updating your recovery details when prompted, you may have difficulty regaining access if you ever lose your password or need to verify your identity in the future.
