- Dec 17, 2021 · 3 years agoAt BYDFi, we recommend the following method for transferring your authenticator app to a new phone for your bitcoin wallet. First, install the authenticator app on your new phone. Then, open the app on your old phone and go to the settings. Look for an option to export or transfer your accounts. This will typically generate a QR code or a secret key. Next, open the authenticator app on your new phone and select the option to add an account. Scan the QR code or manually enter the secret key from your old phone. Finally, verify the transfer by entering the code generated by the authenticator app. This process ensures a secure transfer of your accounts and allows you to continue accessing your bitcoin wallet.
