Transferring a License or Subscription
Android Phones
If the new phone has the same number as the old one, just install and register the app to the new phone, using your existing account email and password. The system should automatically assign the licence/subscription from the old phone.

- First, install and register the app to the new phone, using your existing account email and password.
- Next, log into the parent web portal, and click on the “Licence Status/Purchase” tab on the lower left of the screen.
- Click the “Manage Licences” button. You’ll then see list of existing licences/subscriptions
- Click on the relevant “Transfer” button and select the new phone and click the “Transfer License” button.
