I already use Google Authenticator, can I switch to Verifyr? Yes! Simply create an account in Verifyr using your secret code I already use Microsoft Authenticator, can I switch to Verifyr? Yes! Simply create an account in Verifyr using your secret code Unlike other one-time password (OTP) generators, you are never tied down with Verifyr. You can always view, export and integrate your setup keys with another app that offers dual authentication. How does the creation of one-time passwords using Verifyr work? Verifyr generates OTP passwords based on time (TOTP) or counter (HOTP) authentications. TOTP is a time-based one-time password. These are usually valid for 30 seconds and consist of 6 digits to verify you with your service. This is the most common way to create one-time passwords for your dual authentication HOTP The "H" in HOTP stands for Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC). This is incremented based on a counter. The generated code is valid until you actively request another one and it is validated by the authentication server.
