Worst app ever

By far, the worst app ever designed for dual verification. It stops working at random, will not open the verification window and when you try to reset it (delete the account, delete the app, reinstall the app, add the company account again), it will tell you you need to verify with Okta instead of letting you enter your password. And you can’t verify because you just deleted the account and the app so it’s not set up to verify. That is aside from forcing you to reenter your Okta code dozens of times every single day, even though you’re already logged in and working on your personal device and whatever specific systems. Absolutely horrendous. Do not recommend.

Doesn’t Work

My company made the switch from text message verification to Okta. It worked fine the first two days. Now it’s not working at all. I get the notification on my phone, it scans my face after I click “Yes, it’s me”, and then nothing happens on the website I’m trying to ask. Such a pain

I try opening the app on my Mac and it refuses to even open.

Why doesn’t this app even open on a Mac when I have downloaded it and updated?

Pulling my hair out

Can’t get past trying to make an account. Can’t find the qr they’re talking about or finding some other set of numbers to make an account. I just want access to mhs genesis. If you’re not a computer geek, you’ll end up so frustrated, you’ll just quit. I’ve spent hours trying to use this and have gotten nowhere.

Nightmare program

If I could give this zero stars I would. I have not even been able to access critical accounts for months and new accounts that have started using this I can no longer access. All of these are extremely critical for personal information that I can no longer access. It is so infuriating. And this is when the program actually opens, let alone works. I do not know who made this program but a child could do better.

FAQ

What is Okta Verify used for?

Okta Verify is used for two-step verification to confirm your identity when signing into your Okta account. It adds an extra layer of security, ensuring that only you can access your applications.

How does Okta Verify provide security?

It provides security by offering two methods for verification: generating a temporary 6-digit code or allowing you to approve a sign-in request via a push notification sent to your device. This ensures that even if your password is compromised, unauthorized access is prevented.

Is Okta Verify free to use?

Yes, Okta Verify is a free application. There are no costs associated with downloading or using the app for its intended purpose of two-factor authentication.

What information does Okta Verify store?

Okta Verify is designed to protect your privacy. It does not store personal information. The app only requests permission for your device's camera, which is solely used to scan a QR code for registering your device with your Okta account.

Can Okta Verify be used for non-Okta applications?

Yes, Okta Verify can be used to manage two-factor authentication for non-Okta applications and web services that require the use of passcodes. This extends its utility beyond just Okta account access.
