Great video, thank you. I tried to restore my Microsoft authenticator yesterday by using the restore from backup option on the new phone. It restored all my accounts except for all Outlook and Microsoft 365 accounts because it said that "additional authentication is required" and "action required" which means that I will have to login into 20 Microsoft 365 accounts to rescan the QR codes. That really defeats the purpose of recovery.
@itwithcarlos 4 ай бұрын
yeah, that is weird! I have no explanation for that. Will investigate. Thank you for your feedback.

@@itwithcarlos This would mean to have multiple authentication methods to begin with such as txt, email, phone call just in case you are locked out of the authenticator app. If the old phone is available it is not much of a problem because the authenticator app will approve the requests on the new phone. Today I had to login into all my 365 accounts by adding authenticator app authentication method to add my new device.

Yo Carlos I noticed some other folks that have attempted to transfer MS auth to their new device after signing in with “begin recovery”, they had a red label on some accounts that said “action required!” Do you need to verify these accounts using your old device? Or your accounts should already be good to go. And some require you to scan QR code provided by your account provider? Or Does that only apply for work accounts. Gonna purchase a new iPhone soon just wanna make sure, I don’t mess anything up , kinda nervous.

If there is not any problem with the backup, you only need to restore it and everything should be fine, however, I know the backup could have problems sometimes. In any case, if you still have the old phone, you can also configure the new phone by authorizing it from the old phone. Hope it helps. Thanks.

Hi. Hoping someone can help with this. Where is the backup stored when you select the option on the Microsoft Authenticator app to backup to iCloud? When I search my iCloud I can’t see it anywhere? I want to validate a backup is actually saved. Many thanks.

After putting my microsoft account for backup its now telling me to verify my account using gmail. Which is the option says i have a code or i don't have any of these. I cant get through to this so no backup or i dont know where can i get the code.

Be aware that the account for the backup has to be a free MS account like Hotmail, Outlook.com, etc.
@timaceit7153 9 ай бұрын
Yeah, right... What Microsoft does NOT tell us, is that after we restore all accounts from the backup, they are f***ing useless as they need to be re-authenticated. Every restored account displays a message in red saying "Account requires attention" which means that one has to SIGN IN to that account, then go to the Account settings, add a MFA method and scan a QR code for that account again!!!!!! Like, what is the fucking point of this "backup"???? We had to MANUALLY recover 50+ accounts on our office phone after switching from one Android phone to another. Having the old phone up and running with the MS MFA app configured does not help - you still have to SIGN IN and then ADD MFA methods!!! And I am not even mentioning here that migrating the Micro$oft Authenticator data from an Android phone to an iPhone (and the other way around) is NOT POSSIBLE. At all. Full stop. Does not work. So, how come they call it "backup"??? It is not a backup. It is just another illusion that our data is protected... Damn, I wish I could use the Google Authenticator with all my Microsoft accounts. That app just works.

@itwithcarlos 4 ай бұрын
If your previous phone was an iPhone, then the Authenticator app should have required an iCloud account to store the backup. On your new iPhone, you can restore the backup from your old phone. If you previous phone was an Android, the back was probably made in a free MS account (like Hotmail or Outlook.com), however, it is not possible to restore the backup on a iPhone if the backup was made from an Android. There is not an easy transfer from Android to iPhone or vice versa. The only option is to manually configure the accounts again on the new phone :( Thank you.

If your backup account is configured to authenticate, then yes. You would need the verification for the personal account as well. In this case, it is not suggested to have it configured in the same device. Thank you.

How do you get other authenticator codes from banks or other accounts to transfer over when you back up your data- or do you do it individually?
@itwithcarlos 5 ай бұрын
Hello Preet, when you backup the authenticator, it should backup all the account that are configured within the Microsoft Authenticator app. You don't backup a specific account. In any case, I have only tested with Microsoft accounts, but Microsoft says that all the accounts should be backed up with this option. Hope it helps.

I would say that you can create the backup as shown in the video and then you can restore it in another device (with a different phone number). I haven't tried but I see not reason why it won't work.
