### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-08-25*

After a few months without issues this app now demands ridiculous payment for access, and no apparent way to bypass and use the free version.

### 1/5 — New phone

*2026-06-01, version 4.0*

F ing pain in the arsenal will not allow me to sign in with the number.
What use is this if you can’t access the page to enter the code, think about how on the 
IPhone 17e you cannot simply navigate between pages like I could with my older phone. 
How dumb there is no logic in how the IPhone works.

### 1/5 — Horrible

Cannot locate codes for Amazon two-factor sign in.

### 1/5 — Can’t remember one time to next. App has dementia

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2026-02-17*

Сделал себе код аунтификации, через 5 минут зашел, он удалился! Как итог, восстановление данных и удаление аунтификатора несколько дней потеряно. Ужасное приложение
