I have different apps downloaded on each phone, ideally I would like to just have all app passwords accessible for both devices

    Hi,

    This seems to be possible:

    Have you tried to go to https://aka.ms/mfasetup and add a new second factor method as Authenticator App?

    According to the article you should receive notifications on both devices.

    Hope this helps!
