heylogin does not work without a phone, however, in case of loss you can take several steps to restore functionality:
- If you are part of a heylogin organization, contact your admin. They can disconnect your old phone and connect a new phone. This is the easiest and best method to regain access.
- You can have heylogin generate a backup code for you in your mobile app in case of smartphone loss. This step should be taken as a precaution, in case of a lost or defective device this option is no longer available. With this you can restore heylogin on a new smartphone independently of your Google or Apple account. This way you can also swap between different operating systems (Android, iOS).
- If you have previously activated the backup function of your Apple or Google account, heylogin uses this as an end-to-end encrypted backup mechanism. You need to log in to a new phone with your old Google or Apple account to restore access to heylogin.
