Systems and methods are described for providing a security code to a second device. A first device receives a textual representation of a security code that is required for authorization of a second device with a remote application server. The first device checks if the textual representation of the security code is accessed during a predefined time period. If not, the first device also checks if the second device is within an output range of the first device. If so, the first device outputs an audio representation of the security code.
