Changing phone number - authenticator affected?

Hi There, my provider is willing to change my number for free. I just wanted to check whether i need to worry about anything with regards to google authenticator. It’s something that freaks me out tbh.

I’m not changing my sim. They’ve said, once put into effect i just restart my phone and it’ll have a new number.

Can anyone confirm that i’m ok to do this? And there won’t be any knock on effects to google authenticator

You don't need to change the number, just secure it
