In this video, the speaker explains how to log in to Microsoft Authenticator on a new phone while retaining all your account data. It’s important to note that transferring data between platforms (Android to iPhone or iPhone to Android) is not supported due to differences in the backup systems. Android uses OneDrive, while iPhones use iCloud, making cross-platform transfers impossible. However, transferring between the same platforms (Android to Android or iPhone to iPhone) is a straightforward process.

To start the transfer, users need to open the Microsoft Authenticator app on their old phone. Once in the app, tap the three dots located in the top-right corner and navigate to /”Settings./” From there, find and enable the /”Cloud Backup/” option, which will securely back up all your data to your Microsoft account. This includes authentication codes, passwords, and any other linked credentials.

After enabling the cloud backup, switch to your new phone and log in with the same Microsoft account. During the setup process in the Microsoft Authenticator app, it will prompt you to restore your data from the backup. Once restored, all your authentication details will be available on your new device, allowing you to continue using two-factor authentication without any issues.

The speaker concludes by encouraging viewers to leave any questions in the comment section and thanking them for watching.
