The steps below will help to add entirely new devices to Duo Mobile, such as devices with a new phone number, tablets, and U2F/Security keys. If you are trying to reconnect the app back to a device/phone number that already exists within Duo, please review the instructions for reactivating the Duo Mobile app.
