Verification by second device</strong></h2><p>To verify your vote on a second device, use the device to scan the QR code. With many smartphones, you can do this with the camera. Start the camera and hold it over the QR code for a few seconds, as if you were taking a picture of it. If no notification appears, the camera of your device does not have a scanner. For Apple devices, you can use the settings Control Center to add a QR code scanner. First look in your settings or, if you can't find what you're looking for here, download a free app.</p><div class="embedExternal embedImage display-small float-left"> <div class="embedExternal-content"> <a class="embedImage-link" href="https://us.v-cdn.net/6034140/uploads/6U8TTO2RXO4O/img-9262-png.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener ugc" target="_blank"> <img class="embedImage-img" src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6034140/uploads/6U8TTO2RXO4O/img-9262-png.png" alt="Step 1: Login" height="1905" width="1111" loading="lazy" data-display-size="small" data-float="left"></img></a> </div> </div> <p>After scanning, a web app opens in the browser of your second device.</p><p>To complete the verification at a later time, save the page as a screenshot or PDF.</p><p> <strong>Note</strong>: The verification remains available for up to half an hour after the binding vote has been cast.</p><p>In the web app, log in again using the voter credentials from your election invitation and you will be forwarded to the verification.</p><p>After entering your credentials, click on “Login”. </p><h4 data-id="-2"> </h4><h4 data-id="-3"></h4><div class="embedExternal embedImage display-small float-right"> <div class="embedExternal-content"> <a class="embedImage-link" href="https://us.v-cdn.net/6034140/uploads/0PDULBGY5TDM/img-9263-png.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener ugc" target="_blank"> <img class="embedImage-img" src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6034140/uploads/0PDULBGY5TDM/img-9263-png.png" alt="Step 2: Verify ballot" height="1894" width="1112" loading="lazy" data-display-size="small" data-float="right"></img></a> </div> </div> <p>In the next step, the verification app informs you that the login was successful and you can carry out your verification.
