Never get locked out of your accounts. Authenticator creates secure 2FA codes for every account, keeps them encrypted on your device and backs them up to your private iCloud, so a lost, broken or new iPhone is never a problem. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH • Encrypted iCloud backup and one-tap restore on a new iPhone (Pro) • Codes work offline: no signal or Wi-Fi needed • Face ID and Touch ID keep your codes private • Move accounts over in one step from Google Authenticator, other apps or a file • Home Screen widget shows codes without opening the app BACKUP AND RESTORE Your 2FA secrets are encrypted before they leave your device and are stored in your own iCloud. Sign in on a new iPhone and every account comes back. Prefer to keep it yourself? Export an encrypted backup file. END-TO-END ENCRYPTION Codes are encrypted on your device using your iCloud Keychain. No one but you can read them. SET UP IN SECONDS Scan a QR code or enter the setup key. No account, no email, no signup. SYNC ACROSS DEVICES Accounts stay in sync between iPhone and iPad automatically, and your codes are available on Apple Watch. WORKS WITH THOUSANDS OF SERVICES Authenticator uses the standard TOTP protocol for two-factor authentication (2FA/MFA) and two-step verification. It works with email, banking, cloud storage, crypto exchanges, social networks, gaming, and work or school logins. If a service shows a QR code when you turn on 2FA, it works here. PRO Remove ads and unlock encrypted iCloud backup, restore and sync across devices. Start with a free week. Weekly, monthly and yearly plans are available. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
