Re-register a device
You want to activate the device again on your phone after you have deactivated the device before. This is what you need to know.
Important:
You can only re-register a device if you use the exact same piece of hardware (mobile phone, scanner, etc.). In other words: the same phone you were using before. More information in this article 'Not able to re-register a device'.
Create new device:
If you lost/damaged your old phone or you simply bought a new one and you are now using a completely different type of hardware, this means you first have to create a new device on the platform. More information can be found here: 'How to add a device'.
Why re-registration of a device is useful?
- The operator was temporarily not using a device, but now returns to the operation.
- Re-registration means that in your file overview, you can still search on files by device name.
- While the operator was not working, you had room in your subscription for other operators to use their own device.
Re-registering or recovering the device is done as follows:
☝️ Note: to manage a device on the platform, you need to be either:
-
A "Manager" of the team of the user you want to manage;
-
Or an Admin ("LicenseAdmin" or "SuperAdmin")

-
In the upper right corner, click on your company name and navigate to "Teams, devices & users";
-
Then, go to "Devices" to locate the device you would like to re-register;
-
Click "Activate" to set up the app again, by generating a new QR code so you can scan it from the new device. Much like you did initially.
Done!
