I need to re-activate Duo Mobile. If you have a new phone (or have done a factory reset on an existing phone) and have kept your phone number, you will need to re-activate the Duo Mobile app. Your options here depend on what devices you have on your account. If you cannot log in to your account using an alternate means, you will need to reach out to the UT Helpdesk for identity verification and assistance.

  • Go to the Two-Factor Self-Service site (drew.edu/duo) on a computer (not the phone you are re-activating)
  • Click on the My Settings & Devices link on the left. 
  • Choose the device you would like to use and click the appropriate green button to log in (usually, you will use Call Me).
  • Click the button for "Device Options" next to the appropriate device.
  • Click "Reactivate Duo Mobile".
  • Follow the prompts, which will be similar to those you followed when enrolling in Duo the first time, including scanning a barcode.

  • You will return to the My Settings & Devices page when finished.
