Disconnect Salesforce Authenticator (Version 2 or Later) from a User’s Account

Only one Salesforce Authenticator (version 2 or later) mobile app can be connected to a user’s account at a time. If your user loses access to the app by replacing or losing the mobile device, disconnect the app from the user’s account. The next time the user logs in with two-factor authentication, if no other authenticator app is connected, Salesforce prompts the user to connect a new authenticator app.
Available in: Both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: All Editions
