I lost my phone (authenticator app or passkey)
Troubleshooting
Use one of your recovery codes, then set up your new phone.
- On the second step of sign-in, choose "Recovery code" under "or use another way" and type one of the ten codes you saved. Each works once.
- Passkey on another device? If this browser cannot use passkeys, sign in on the phone or computer that has it, or use a recovery code.
- Once in, open Account → Security: set up the new phone ("Moving to a new phone"), remove the old app or passkey, and make new recovery codes.
- No recovery codes left? Write to Contact support from the email address on your account. The owner checks it is really you, then asks for a reset: we email you straight away, and it only happens after a waiting period (normally 24 hours) so you can stop it if it was not you.
- After the reset you sign in with your password or provider, then set up a passkey or an authenticator app again.
- Emailed codes are not accepted once you have a passkey or an app — so losing both needs the owner's reset. Keep your recovery codes safe.
