Installing Duo app on a tablet

IMPORTANT

YOU MUST complete these instructions in the exact order shown below. 

The install will not work:

  • If you abandon the steps part way through
  • If you begin setup within the DUO app instead of the browser (see Step 1)
  • If at any point you see the words Enter a bypass code

If any of the above happen, you will need to contact IT Services by phone (01509 222 333 - Mon-Fri 08:45-17:00) to complete the setup. 

Step 1: Download the DUO Mobile app

Download the app to your tablet by clicking the appropriate button (App Store/Google Play) below.

**If you see a message telling you the app cannot be installed on your device, please contact  IT Services to discuss alternative solutions.

Once installed, DO NOT OPEN THE APP YET. Proceed directly to Step 2.

IF YOU OPEN THE APP NOW AND TRY AND SET UP WITHIN THE APP, THE SETUP WILL FAIL AND YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE.

 

Step 2: Visit the DUO enrolment portal in a browser

Click the “DUO enrolment portal” below to begin the setup for your device. The page will open in your default browser.

IMPORTANT – you must visit the DUO enrolment portal on the same device that you have enrolled the DUO Mobile app onto, and not on a laptop or desktop computer.
