[Smartphone authentication service] What procedure do I need to do when changing to another smartphone?

STEP 1) Please unregister Smartphone Authentication on your old device

If you change to another smartphone, you will be required to unregister from the smartphone authentication service (Credential ID *1) and re-register your credential ID from your new smartphone.
(*1): Credential ID refers to the ID of the "VIP Access" app required to use the smartphone authentication service.

*If you are switching to a new smartphone and your phone number remains unchanged, and the ‘VIP Access’ app is up to date, you can transfer your ‘VIP Access Credential’ to the new device.
In this case, there is no need to deregister from the Smartphone Authentication service.
For detailed instructions, please refer to the “Migrate Credential” section in the menu at the top left corner of the “VIP Access” app.
