    Microsoft Authenticator...If my phone is lost forever. The only way to restore my codes is...


    There isn't even an app category. After my night I feel like this will yet again be removed. I legit badly need help. Throw me a bone mods. I'm legit begging. I'm 3 hours in and so frustrated. Please let someone help me....I'm done with google. I'm so sick of all these tech giants. Here is my problem.Used googles 2FA for years. Got a new phone. Realize how dumb it is to not have backup codes to restore authenticator. Phone dropped in the toilet? 11 accounts are gone forever. I've spent hours on this and want to move to microsoft. I'm done. Email, search, everything. Google can kick rocks

    :)

    Unable to login to Paypal phone broken

    I use an authenticator app on my phone for 2 step verification to login to paypal but my phone is broken so I can no longer get the code. I've tried using the microsoft authenticator app on another device but it's looking for a QR code to scan which I can't access since I can't login to paypal

    Paypal tells me they is no way they can turn off the 2 step verification whjich means I cannot ever access my account.

    There must be a way around this?

    New Microsoft Authenticator version for Android and iOS - Oct. 12

    Two factor authentication (TFA) is easy, convenient, and secure when you use Microsoft Authenticator. Use your phone, not your password, to log into your Microsoft account. Just enter your username, then approve the notification sent to your phone. Your fingerprint, face ID, or PIN will provide a second layer of security in this two step verification process. After youve signed in with two factor authentication (TFA), youll have access to all your Microsoft products and services, such as Outlook, OneDrive, Office, and more.
