So basically what title says.
Im using 2FA with google authenticator for multiple accounts. What if my phone gets stolen? Can I have some kind of backup? Or maybe sync with some self hosted service?
Bonus question: what 2FA should I use instead of google?
I uses https://authy.com/
Separat from my passwords
Just a heads up. There is no way to export from authy. So if you ever want to switch apps for whatever reason, lets say they were bought by big evil corp., then you would have to go and regenerate all your keys. Where as a good app would let you export and import from anywhere
Yep took me several days to transfer all the logins to Aegis
Is this an intentional joke? (I often miss jokes so I am asking seriously)
Authy was bought ages ago by Twillio, which also owns Segment (customer data platform)… So Twilio may not be all that big, but they’re fairly big players in the tracking and ads space. Which I loathe.
I’m in this thread because I want to move away from Authy for this very reason.
An unintentional one it would seem. Had no idea. Thanks for highlighting this.
