Before you ship

6
  1. 01Establish a trigger point — clearly indicate when verification is required and why it is necessary
  2. 02Method selection — where offered, multiple verification methods (email, SMS, authenticator)
  3. 03Confirm delivery and contact information used — display the email address or phone number so the user can see it is the correct destination
  4. 04Ability to input verification code — a field per digit is intuitive, but a default input field is perfectly accessible
  5. 05Incorrect value and resend option — specific error messages per failure: expired code offers a new send, incorrect code asks to re-enter
  6. 06Verification success state — clear confirmation when verification succeeds, continuing to the next step of the interface
