How do I allow user to change two-factor authentication app when Two-factor is enforced? I have a user that wants to change Authentication app on different phone.  There is a warning that says if admin enforced, talk to the admin for help.  Well, I am the admin and I don't how to do this.  The warning states that if they disable two-factor, they will not be able to get back in to re-enable it.

-thanks, Dean

It's funny if everything work fine with the other 2FA then it suppose doesn't have a matter with our time sync right? at first this was the first thing i do, but this solution doesn't work for me. But never mind i stop using this 2FA, i hate to waste time to solve the problem that out of my control, lol.

Actually. Scrap that.

 

I just had the same thing happen when trying to log into another site using 2FA. It turned out that somehow the option to sync Date/Time with the network had got turned off in my Android settings and my phone's clock had drifted a few minutes off.

 

Resync'd time with the network and everything's working fine again.

 

Sorry for the 'false flag'!

Same here. 

This is happening today for me when trying to log in with 2FA. I'm using the 'Authenticator +' Android app. So, it's obviously not app-specific.

I've never had any problems before using 2FA with this same app and this device. But I'm getting knocked back every time today:
