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.

• Your new phone - SAME PHONE NUMBER
• A computer

On your phone:
