  • Lack of fixes

    It used to be better until they shipped an update which broke the size of the boxes, wasting half of your screen and making it harder to scan lists of accounts. Not fixing it for so long makes me fear it’s orphaned.
  • Texts are too small

    The last update fixed the issues with running on newer iOS, but it makes things so small that it’s hard to read.
  • Won’t use camera on iPhone or iPad

    No use to me and no support to ask.
  • Crash

    The app doesn’t work and keeps crashing!!
  • Is not recognized by my phone

    I have just installed this app on my iPhone 8. For some reason, the although the icon of the app shows up on my screen, and Ia am even able to open it, the phone does not recognize it. It does not show on the app list in configurations. It doesn’t ask for permission to use the the camera so that I my scan QR codes with it - which renders the app useless. I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall it, to no avail.

  • Can’t open the camera to scan, even in the setting

    Reload the app in the iPhone X ...but can’t open the camera to scan. Besides, try to edit or other motion... the app will shutdown...even can’t find this app in the setting to open the camera function. How come!?
  • Does what it needs to, simply & clearly

    Not a lot of bells & whistles, but, frankly, that’s the kind of software I like. Don’t complicate things with stuff I’m not asking for and don’t need. Free OTP gets the job done. There’s no cloud backup so make sure you keep backup codes in a safe place (I use my password manager).
  • It works

    Although I have never used any other authentication app, I don’t see why I would need any features this one doesn’t have. I use this on an iphone 6s with ios 12 and it has never caused any problem for me. I have not tried to add any custom icons, so if that really isn’t working as some other reviews say, I wouldn’t know and I have no need for the feature.

    Unless I am not remembering correctly, this app is open source which makes it more secure than the overwhelming majority of other authentication apps.

  • Wont work for me

    On iOS 12 iphone 6S. Needed this app for work. It Doesnt work properly. Upon opening the first time, it crashes immediately, second time it opens, still can’t use the app because the barcode scanner wont operate properly. It just comes up as dark. Gonna have to use google authenticator. Its much better for now

  • Apple Watch support would be great

    I use this app daily, and if I could also use it via my Apple Watch, that would be excellent. Thanks!
