Ente's Authenticator app helps you generate and store 2 step verification (2FA) tokens on your mobile devices. FEATURES SECURE BACKUPS Auth provides end-to-end encrypted cloud backups so that you don't have to worry about losing your tokens. We use the same protocols Ente Photos uses to encrypt and preserve your data. MULTI DEVICE SYNC Auth will automatically sync the 2FA tokens you add to your account, across all your devices on mobile & desktop. Every new device you sign into will have access to these tokens. WEB ACCESS You can access your 2FA tokens on any device by using https://auth.ente.io. OFFLINE MODE Auth generates 2FA tokens offline, so your network connectivity will not get in the way of your workflow. IMPORT AND EXPORT You can add tokens to ente by one of the following methods: - Scanning a QR code - Manually entering (copy-pasting) a 2FA secret - Bulk importing from a file that contains a list of codes in the following format: otpauth://totp/provider.com:you@email.com?secret=YOUR_SECRET The codes maybe separated by new lines or commas. You can also export the codes you have added to ente, to an unencrypted text file, that adheres to the above format. TERMS https://ente.io/terms

Read full description

OTP Keyboard generates standard TOTP/HOTP verification codes on your device and puts them right where you need them: on your keyboard and in AutoFill. NO APP SWITCHING • A dedicated keyboard shows your codes right below any login field — tap once to type them • Verification-code AutoFill fills codes without opening the app • One-tap copy, and copied codes clear from the clipboard after 30 seconds QUICK SETUP • Scan a setup QR code with the camera, read one from a photo, or enter the key manually • Works with GitHub, Google, AWS, Notion and every service that supports authenticator apps (TOTP/HOTP, SHA-1/256/512, 6 or 8 digits) PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Secret keys are stored in iCloud Keychain and sync end-to-end encrypted across your devices • Codes are generated on device — nothing is sent to our servers, and there are no analytics • Face ID lock, hidden App Switcher preview, and encrypted file backups • The keyboard never logs what you type; without Full Access it still works as a number pad SIMPLE TO MANAGE • Drag cards to reorder — the keyboard list follows your order • Search, edit, and organize your accounts OTP Keyboard is built for one thing: getting your two-factor code into the field in front of you, faster.
