### 2/5 — Good solution, but nag donate screen

*2026-06-03, version 111.8*

I’ve been using the software for years, and am very happy with it. What I’m not happy about is the donation nag screens, I’ve donated quite a few times inviting very recent, but those nag screens continue to pop up and quite frequently. As in every other day or so, it’s not right.

### 2/5 — iCloud Sync not working

*2026-06-02, version 111.8*

Switched to a different phone, logged in with master password, and my codes don’t sync. I reinstalled the app and it still doesn’t work. iCloud sync status says “up to date” on both phones.

### 3/5 — Eigentlich klasse App

*2026-05-30, version 111.8*

Die App funktioniert hervorragend (5 Sterne)

Die nie endende Einblendung zur Spende beim Start nervt dann doch mal irgendwann (minus 2 Sterne)!
Ja, die Spendenaufforderung kommt selbst dann noch, wenn man bereits gespendet hat.
Ich überlege, nun doch wieder den Google-Authenticator zu verwenden.
Für 8,99€ hätte man durchaus darüber nachdenken können, die Spendenauffordeung beim Start zu entfernen.

### 4/5 — Удобное, но требует догата

*2026-05-24*

Удобное приложение. Использую для входа на разные сайты вместо звонков и смс. Однако в последнее время стало просить задонатить. Мешает.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-05-19, version 111.8*

But keeps asking for donation every login. Either make it paid or stop begging

### 5/5 — Open Source and Secure

*2026-05-18*

Open Source and Secure

**Developer response:** Thank you for reviewing Raivo

### 5/5 — Great team, great app

*2026-05-17, version 111.8*

It's safe and convenient. The team reacts to reviews, I appreciate that

### 5/5 — Best app for 2FA

*2026-05-13, version 111.8*

Smooth experience

### 5/5 — Thanks Raivo

*2026-05-11, version 111.8*

I just lost all of my data.

### 5/5 — No vendor lockin & proper exporting.

*2026-05-02, version 111.8*

Love that it has a proper export mechanism for TOTP’s.

Other apps I’ve tried all make it very hard to transport TOTP’s. This app produces a nice PDF that I have printed out. All my devices can be taken from me, and I would still be be able to recover all my accounts

### 2/5 — Nags for donations!

*2026-04-28, version 111.8*

Even though I have donated a few times, I’m getting the donation begging screen almost every time I open the app! It’s worse than the drug addict at the freeway exit with his cardboard sign! Just make it a paid app at this point!

### 5/5 — Easy and effective

*2026-04-28, version 111.8*

Love how it works securely

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-04-23, version 111.8*

Very handy and reliable app. Easy to migrate to new device.

### 5/5 — Albasoulgroup

*2026-04-16, version 111.8*

Good

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don't Donate!!

*2026-07-30, version 111.9*

There's a nag screen now to donate. Even if you do, IT COMES BACK. Even paid apps don't pull that BS! Use another app like 2FAS, Ente Auth, or even Bitwarden Authenticator. Don't give this company who acquired the app a single cent!

### 1/5 — OTPs Deleted on Update

*2026-07-23, version 111.9*

I am another that has just had all my OTPs deleted following an update. Was not aware of the issues surrounding the app and have found out the hard way. Tried many options of recovery inc side loading all to no avail. Massively inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Parasite software

*2026-07-13, version 111.9*

Does nothing and begs for money

### 1/5 — Avoid! It's a sketchy shell of what was once good

*2026-06-04, version 111.8*

A very, very overdue review, but I'd like to inform a story about how sketchy this app has become. This used to be a rather popular, open-sourced authenticator app, but 2 years ago, it was announced that Raivo was bought out by a third party company, and shortly after, an update had wiped the data of most, if not all of its users. Raivo's response from the now-defunct repository was that users should pay a subscription to restore your data with a backup, and that's if you had an iCloud backup at the time before your data was wiped and before that functionality was paywalled. This was then met with massive backlash within the community's discussions, and this prompted the open source repository's channels of discussion to be locked and then deleted (however you can still find evidence of this online through web archives and such). Nothing was done to rectify this after that occurred.
I was one of the lucky ones that had a recent local backup to recover my 2FA tokens from, but I can imagine many weren't as lucky as me. This app is, in my opinion, not safe to use given that history, and frankly I'm surprised it still exists here. There still seem to be updates to this app, but the repository's source code hasn't been touched in over a year; which means that this is no longer an open-sourced app as well. I can also imagine it's very aggressive about its donation-asking given the reviews here. This app is a shell of its former self that took a very sour turn, and I highly advise anyone reading this to consider better alternatives

### 1/5 — 丢数据

*2026-05-17, version 111.8*

在更新系统后会丢失全部数据

### 1/5 — Incessant donation prompts

*2026-05-04, version 111.8*

Original developer sold this app, now it frequently prompts for donations, even if you have already donated.

### 1/5 — Deleted all data - do not use

*2026-04-07, version 111.8*

I can’t believe this app is still available. After they had previously deleted everyone’s data without any warning. Do not trust the developers and do not download this app. Use an alternative. I am still experiencing issues trying to log into things that had my 2fa code saved with this app.

### 1/5 — Lost all 2FAs

*2026-03-07, version 111.7*

The latest update wiped all of the data, resulting in having to create a new account and all the setup 2FAs being deleted.

### 1/5 — Was great, now poor

*2026-02-27, version 111.6*

Used to be the app I recommended to everyone. 

But it bugs me like crazy that it’s always asking me to donate. 

When you’re in a rush to get your 2FA, it’s a pain to have to try and find the “no” button to get past the donation page. 


Not worth using IMO.

### 1/5 — terrible

*2026-02-19, version 111.6*

terrible app. do not use if you want to keep your codes to your accounts. they wiped all my codes and i had to downgrade to a different version to restore them. they also disabled issues section on github to prevent backlash.

*2026-07-14, version 111.9*

*2026-07-13*
