App requirements
To use Google Authenticator on your Android device, you need:
In the Authenticator app, tap More Transfer accounts Export accounts.
Select the accounts you want to transfer to your new phone. Then, tap Next. If you transfer more than one account, your old phone may create more than one QR code.
On your new phone, tap Scan QR code.
After you scan your QR codes, you get confirmation that your Authenticator accounts transferred.
Tip: If your camera can’t scan the QR code, there may be too much information. Try to export again with fewer accounts.
If you already have Authenticator for your account, remove that account from Authenticator.
Important: Before you remove an account from Authenticator, make sure you have a backup. Learn more about backup codes.
To set up 2-Step Verification for the Authenticator app, follow the steps on screen. Use the same QR code or secret key on each of your devices. Learn more about 2-Step Verification.
To check that the code or key works, make sure the verification codes on every device are the same.
To receive a one-time-passcode on your cellphone via text message, click Send Code Check your cellphone. You should have received a text message like the image below with a 6-digit verification code: Enter the 6-digit code received via text message on the Extranet login site Click Verify Code.
You can't recover Google Authenticator from a lost phone because the secret keys Google Authenticator generates are specific to the device. If you lose the phone, you lose access to the secret keys.
If you've deleted the Google Authenticator app on your old phone without first moving the accounts to the new phone, you have two options. Retrieve via backup codes you were given when you created your google authenticator account or you'll have to add each of your accounts manually to your new phone.
If your device with 2FA (two factor authentication) is lost broken or stolen, you should and most likely have to change your passwords, set up 2FA again, and get new verification codes.
In order to bypass Google 2-step verification during setup, you'll need to do the following: Navigate to Settings > General Settings > Reset. Follow the setup process until you get to Connect to the WiFi Network. Tap the WiFi password textbox.
Unfortunately, you cannot restore Google Authenticator on some other phone. If your phone is lost you lose an access to some services which you protect with two-factor authentication. Some services offer backup codes so if you've saved them in advance you can use them to restore access to your accounts.
