Authenticator app

Hi,
I can’t access the authenticator app since changing phones and I’m afraid I can’t find the original codes. Is there a way I can set it up again?

You should be able to login to WordPress.com via your computer and go here to generate backup codes:

Let me know if you have any trouble.

Thanks very much, that worked. But when I try to open the app I get a blank screen. If I click the little icon at the top right it’s asking me to scan the barcode?

I would encourage you to not use the authenticator app and just set up SMS to your phone for two step authentication. Solves the annoyance with the app all together.

I would shut it off and start over just to make sure it gets set up correctly.
Here are the instructions for SMS:
