Reactivate the Duo Mobile App for Duo 2FA

If you removed the Duo Mobile app from your phone or tablet, or have a new phone but still have the same phone number, you can reactivate the Duo Mobile app on your device. If you have a new phone AND a new phone number, you will need to contact the Service Desk for assistance.

Please note that you may need to use an incognito window (Chrome) or a private browsing session (Firefox) to follow these instructions, if your browser has remembered your device. To open a private browsing session, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+N (Windows/Chrome), Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows/Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer) or Command+Shift+N (Mac).
