    Sure! To switch the Google Authenticator app to a new device for your Coinbase account, follow these steps: 1. Install the Google Authenticator app on your new device from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android). 2. Open the Google Authenticator app on your new device and tap on 'Begin setup'. 3. On your Coinbase account, go to 'Settings' and select 'Security'. 4. Under 'Two-Factor Authentication', click on 'Add Authenticator'. 5. A QR code will appear on the screen. Open the Google Authenticator app on your new device and tap on the '+' icon to scan the QR code. 6. Once the QR code is scanned, the Google Authenticator app will generate a 6-digit verification code. Enter this code on Coinbase to complete the setup. That's it! Your Google Authenticator app is now switched to your new device, and you can securely access your Coinbase account.
