Receive a Duo Push

Use passcodes

Add, edit, reorder, and remove accounts

Action required?
If you have not enabled automatic app updates on the device you use with Duo Mobile, you will need to update the app manually once the update is available.

No. All of your protected accounts will be automatically present in Duo Mobile after the update. You do not need to re-add anything.
How do I start using Duo Mobile?
If you aren’t already using Duo Push, we highly recommend you do! It’s faster, easier, and more secure than using SMS. Check out our Enroll a Smartphone instructions page.
