Very good open-source Authenticator that beats the rest.

While people are saying it is too simple (and it frankly is), the simplicity is a selling point and makes this app very lightweight and fast. Furthermore the local storage and not connected to the internet is fantastic.I however, few it is missing a few features, most notably a password protection/ Face ID/ Touch ID that could make these vital passwords more protected. However, even without this feature, I recommend this app.

Very good

Simple and easy to use. I trust it doesn’t make any connections to the internet but haven’t verified this myself. Some nice improvements would be to lock the app with a PIN, Touch ID or Face ID. And a line or something separating the various accounts. Something to make them visually appear more separate. Other than that, this is all most people need.

IOS Dont forget to make Encrypted Backup

This app is excellent, i like the search function at the very top which took me awhile to find - at first i scrolled down and scanned to find codes. With the search its perfect. Make sure you make an encrypted backup of your phone and save and secure backup codes , if you don’t, when you lose or replace phone you willbe locked out of accounts. All that said, this is all revealed when you look around the app. It does NOT backup to the cloud, and all data stays on your device. You must wipe your device if you sell it for that reason, and please lock your phone with a passcode!

Simple, maybe too simple?

Provides a brain dead interface which is a good thing for this type of app. The lack of “Internet” backup is a security feature, cool. As the developer says the keys are stored in the iOS key chain and follow normal protocol for backup that would seem like best practice. One needs to understand the limitations of cloud storage relative to keys and the inherent need to back up the device “locally”, which has its own risks. The act of having two devices with these encryption keys is verboten in this model because the keys and the device are viewed as indivisible. If you have they keys, you must therefore have the one and only device that has them (or have an encrypted backup and know it’s pass phrase). As for the user interface, Noob/NoOp could fail to put a passcode on their phone, lol. If we were going to secure Grandma, despite her best intentions to the contrary, we might default to use of an app level Authentication Password, PIN, Touch/Face. Many apps allow this as practically speaking someone may let grand kids use their phone occasionally. Hope it supports iOS 12.x token integration. BTW, thank you for this clean app! I’ll have a look at the open source for sure.

Great authenticator app.

It does exactly what it's supposed to. As long as you have backup codes for your accounts, then you shouldn't have a problem with this app.My only complain is that the app hasn't been updated in three years. I don't know if it's been abandoned or something.

So much better than google auth

Just make sure your device backups are encrypted, and your codes should transfer when switching. Keep in mind with google auth, if you don’t turn off 2 factor for every account you have, you will likely be locked out of your accounts after changing devices.

Too east to delete a token - then you’re screwed

Was working with Dashlane then there was a problem with authenticator app. You see in one small second my finger hit the delete button on the token. Now I can’t log in to anything. Crazy thing is I’m trying to get support and it does not recognize my email. Stay away from this app until it’s better designed or you’ll be spending hours trying to get into your account on another app. There’s no way it should be this easy to accidentally delete a token and then screw your life for good. Really a bad design

Super easy!!! F Google's version

I was originally using Google Authenticator. Needless to say I wasted two days trying to authenticate a very important account. I thought that it was my account, but it was actually Google Authenticator that was garbage. I downloaded this app and it worked instantly without any issues at all! Five stars all the way!

Good App

I use this app instead of other authentication apps because it doesn't use a phone number, making it more secure. If you need to transfer it to another device, I don't see why you wouldn't just be able to back it up onto a computer and then load it on the new phone.

Superb

Authenticator apps are pretty much vanilla. They do one job and the interface is simple. But details matter. The google app presents the six-digit numbers grouped in threes. This app groups in twos. For whatever reason, my mind retains two groups much better than three groups. I asked google to add a setting which would let me choose two groups as the display. They ignored me. This app works for me so much better. Thank you!!

Description

Authenticator is a simple, free, and open source two-factor authentication app. It helps keep your online accounts secure by generating unique one-time passwords, which you use in combination with your other passwords to log into supporting websites. The simple combination of the password in your head and the rotating passwords generated by the app make it much harder for anyone but you to access your accounts. • Easy: Simple setup via QR code, "otpauth://" URL, or manual entry • Secure: All data is stored in encrypted form on the iOS keychain • Compatible: Full support for time-based and counter-based one-time passwords as standardized in RFC 4226 and 6238 • Off the Grid: The app never connects to the internet, and your secret keys never leave your device.
