Mobile app recovery

If you lost your phone or reinstalled idemeum app, follow the recovery process.

Overview

Your idemeum mobile application is the key to idemeum platform - it has the crypto keys that represent your identity and are used to decrypt all the passwords and sensitive information that you see. When you need to reinstall idemeum app, you need to follow the recovery process.

There are two ways you can recover:

  1. Approval recovery - this process applies when there are multiple admins onboarded into your idemeum tenant. When you initiate the recovery, another admin will need to login into idemeum portal and approve your request.
  2. Emergency QR-code recovery - this process applies when there is only one admin user in idemeum tenant. When you get promoted to admin, we will send the email to you containing your emergency recovery code. You will need to use this emergency QR-code to recover from a new device.
