- dewey 9y ago1Password can also do that and then you don’t need a second app if you decide to use it as a password manager
- srinivasan 9y agoThis would make your wallet a single point of vulnerability. If someone gains access to your wallet, they would know your passwords and your 2FA tokens. While it's certainly better than no 2FA, it's not as good as having the token and password in different places.
- BjoernKW 9y agoPlease note though: The backup feature makes Authy vulnerable to phone porting attacks.
- kenbaylor 9y agoTrue, but it's optional. Their 'by default' options are pretty reasonable.
