    Hi

    Which kind of account have you tried to add?
    From Microsoft Authenticator app help documentation, there are 4 different Add account methods.
    The following articles will help you add accounts step by step.

    Add a work or school account:

    Add a personal Microsoft account:

    Add a non-Microsoft account:
