This is a feature request. I don't know where to file this, because the app doesn't have the "Send Feedback" option, nor is it logged elsewhere.

I would like to request for an easy "Export" and "Import" accounts transfer mechanism for Microsoft Authenticator.

Currently, for Google Authenticator, it is easy to use. They have a feature called "Transfer Accounts" for Android phones, where just by scanning the produced QR code, you can easily transfer all stored 2FA accounts from one phone to another phone.

It would be nice to have this feature for Microsoft Authenticator app, for both Android and iPhone devices.

Thanks.
