Getting a new cellphone during the holidays? Register a second device with Duo to maintain your My.Scranton access.

If you plan to purchase a new cellphone during the holidays, you will need to re-enroll your account and reconfigure your device. Since our offices close during the holidays, we recommend that users that are planning to replace their cellphones enroll a second device in Two Step today.

Registering a second device prior to getting a new phone, will allow users to continue to log into the My.Scranton portal until IT support resumes on Thursday, January 2.

Register a Secondary Device

Device options include a smartphone, tablet and a hardware token (tokens can only be obtained by visiting the Technology Support).

  • Choose an existing authentication method to log into your account
  • Select + Add another device
  • Choose Mobile phone or Tablet (iPad, Nexus 7, etc.)

Upon completion of the onscreen prompts, you will have enrolled a secondary device which can be used to authenticate with. The next time you log into my.scranton, you will be able to select your device and authentication method.
