    Tell them to follow this procedure to remove their account from the mobile app, then add it again:

    1. Go to your Azure portal profile and sign in with your organizational account.
    2. Select Additional Security Verification.
    3. Remove the existing account from the mobile app.
    4. Click Configure, and then follow the instructions to reconfigure the mobile app.
