## What is 2! Authenticator?

2! Authenticator: Secure 2FA in Your Browser

Stop reaching for your phone every time you log in. 2! Authenticator brings secure, Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) directly to your desktop browser. Fully compatible with the export features of major mobile authenticator apps, this extension keeps you in your workflow while maintaining top-tier security.

Why You’ll Love It

Stay in the Zone: No need to unlock your phone or wait for insecure SMS codes. Your 2FA codes are just a click away in your toolbar.

Bulk Import: Easily migrate your accounts! You can import multiple codes at once by scanning the export QR code from your mobile app.

Smart Sorting: The extension detects the website you are currently visiting and automatically suggests the correct code at the top of the list.

Universal Compatibility: Works with almost any online service that supports standard 2FA login.

Easy Setup Options

Scan: Use your webcam to scan a QR code (supports single accounts or bulk exports).

Paste: Copy and paste a QR code image directly from your clipboard.

Drag & Drop: Simply drag a QR code image into the extension window.

Manual Entry: Type in the secret key provided by your service.

Privacy First We believe your security is paramount.

Offline Operation: All logic is computed locally on your machine. Your codes are never sent over the internet.

Zero Data Sharing: We do not share your data with third parties.

Permissions: We only ask for permissions strictly necessary to scan codes (Camera/Active Tab) when you initiate the action.

Premium Features (One-Time Fee: $2.99) Unlock the full potential of 2! Authenticator with a lifetime license:

AES-GCM Encryption: Lock your vault with a personal password/PIN to prevent unauthorized access.

Cloud Backup & Restore: Securely backup your vault to your preferred cloud service or hard drive. Never lose your access again.

Device Transfer: Export QR codes to move accounts to a new phone or device.

Important Security Notes

No Password Recovery: To ensure maximum security, we cannot reset your password/PIN if you lose it. If you forget your encryption PIN, your data cannot be recovered.

Webcam Requirement: Importing multiple codes from mobile apps requires a webcam to scan the export QR code.

Version 2.0.4 - Major Update!

New UI: Completely redesigned for ease of use.

One-Click Copy: Click a code to copy it instantly.

Smart Suggestions: Accounts affiliated with your active tab appear at the top.
