User reviews

Clean and easy…

This is a great authentication app and it work exactly as advertised. Really appreciate that they don’t try to mine your data. Definitely recommend! Clean interface and easy to use!

Response from developer

Thanks for your thoughtful review gasc@n! Glad to hear you’re finding Toucan useful.

Great potential, needs more work

This app has a beautiful interface and usability, but still needs more work, as follows:

- the ability to add custom icons on the sites that are added for 2fa;
- the option to add this app in the iOS share menu, so the code could be pasted right from Safari;
- iCloud sync is a must, much better than just manually sharing the codes;
- maybe the main icon can be changed into something more technical, or at least simple colors, since the current icon looks more like a game than a 2fa app;
- folder creation.

Still, superb graphics, has great potential, please continue to improve this app.

Hacker Virus Scam

First one didn’t work, then he told me to download again. After looking at my face book it got hacked the same time I downloaded this app. That HAS NEVER happened in my life. Stay away from this hacker. No telling what else he got.

Response from developer

Hi, We have never spoken before. Let me assure you that Toucan Authenticator never sends your account data off your device, for any reason. I’m sorry to hear that your Facebook account has been hacked. The reason to use two factor authentication in the first place is to help prevent events like this from ever occurring. If you would like to discuss this then please email me: toucan@mrmichael.co.uk.

Works very well for me.

This OTP app as a very clean interface and works well with the iPhone X

Good start, would like a couple features added!

Update: Michael, thanks for your response! It’s great to see those features being planned!

First off it’s beautiful. Much better than what I had before. Secondly, I like the Touch/Face ID integration.

Now what I’d like to see from this app is support for folders, so I can group personal vs work Authenticator codes, or group them by services or function. One other addition I’d like is a widget that allows me to see my codes quickly.

Solid 4/5 due to a little bit of animation lag on an iPhone X and the copy pop up blocking the bottom code when editing, if you misclick, with no way to dismiss that pop up; sliding down would be the obvious response.

Keep up the good work!

Toucan has been updated, there is now a widget for viewing codes, and you can tag them for home or work and filter easily based on that. To add a tag to a code you can tap edit, then tap the icon on the row and select a tag. Thank you again for your feedback, if you have any other thoughts please let me know!
