lost phone with lastpass authenticator and did not save backup code

Tried several times to get the lastpass authenticator to work again on my new phone, but did not succeed. The lastpass help only talks about, moving to another phone , with lastpass authenticator backup code.

Can somebody help,

Thanks

Re: lost phone with lastpass authenticator and did not save backup code

Hi @oscbet, welcome to the community.

 

If you had Cloud Back Up enabled in LastPass Authenticator on the phone that you have lost, you should be able to restore the last back up to your new phone. Unfortunately, if you did not use the Cloud Back Up feature there is nothing we can do. You will need to go through the recovery options for each of the sites you used the Authenticator app for and regain access to the accounts and set them up with Authenticator again. This support article explains how to disable LastPass Authenticator on your LastPass account if you lose your phone.

Re: lost phone with lastpass authenticator and did not save backup code

@GlennD 

Thanks for your answer. I do not had the backup  active, so i need to do the recovery option.

The link you mention 'how to disable Lastpass Authenticator"

First you have to login to identity.lastpass.com.

Then in step 4: Select My phone is lost or stolen > Send me a recovery email.

This step I cannot find in the screen I see.

Can you help me out ?

You can find the 'backup to cloud' function in the LastPass Authenticator app in settings.
