  • Best 2FA app

    Everyone should use this instead of Google authenticator / Authy.

    - Open source
    - Respects your privacy (not sending data back to Google for them to later use to sell ads)
  • Great app

    I trust this more than the ones that connect your cell phones to it. Cell phones can be compromised via tricking a customer service support agent.
  • Simple but lacking something important

    I like the simplicity but it needs to be locked either by PIN or touch/Face ID. I’m hoping that gets added at some point.
  • 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!!

  • Crash

    App doesn't work anymore since the last update

    Developer Response

    The crashing bug that affected some users was fixed in version 2.0.4 on April 29. We're sorry for the inconvenience!
  • Touch ID

    I think this app would be great if got offered touch id to make this app a bit more secure. I mean, you can never have too much security.
  • Too easy to delete tokens by accident

    My son deleted all my tokens by swiping to the left within a few seconds, didn’t notice it until it was too late.

    Fix the ability to delete the tokes so easy, this makes no sense and can be very frustrating if you don’t have a backup. Otherwise great and simple app.
  • Simple and lightweight

    Gets it right without bogging the app down with unnecessary features
  • 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

  • Locked Out Of Account

    I accidentally deleted an authentication number because I thought it wasn’t working. Since then, I got locked out of an account elsewhere because I failed to be able to authenticate myself with this app. I’m not very tech-savvy so this is super stressful for me. I phoned the website who said they couldn’t get me into my account unless I contacted the app directly and, guess what? I have no idea how to do that despite ages of Googling everything. This app has cost me a lot of time and money trying to get back my authentication.
