Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) - How do I remove an account from the app?

This article explains how to remove an account from the authenticator app.
  • iOS: From the main screen, swipe left on an account tile. Select Delete.
  • Windows Phone: From the main screen, select the menu button, then Edit accounts. Tap the X next to the account name.
  • Android: From the main screen, select the menu button, then Edit accounts. Tap the X next to the account name.

If you have a device that is registered with your organization, you may need to complete an extra step to remove your account. On these devices, the Microsoft Authenticator app is automatically registered as a device administrator. If you want to completely uninstall the app, you need to first unregister the app in the app settings.
