what does that mean for me being able to transfer the license to a new phone and discontinue the old phone?

You have to use the same Google account on the new phone as you did on the old one (and I'm talking about the Google account in your device Settings-Accounts, not avast! Account). If you do that and after that install avast! apps, they should automatically pick up the premium license based on the Google account.

so in order for me to transfer phones (and the license as well), i just need to reinstall avast using the other phones google account and link it to my avast account and the license will automatically transfer?
i am sure that will work for the phone that has the google account tied to the avast subscription, but im not sure about the one with the manually typed-in license....
won't avast say 'license already used'?

You don't even have to link it to your avast! Account, that is not needed.

Why would it say "license already used"? You can use one license on multiple devices and your old device will become inactive after some time.

Of course you can. There is some limit, but it certainly is not 2 or anything close.
