Google disabled backups for their Authenticator app so I don't think they will ever let you export the secrets.
I wrote an application to automate OTP secret extraction for just about every app out there after trying to migrate a few dozen tokens from Google Authenticator to AndOTP. You might find it useful: https://github.com/puddly/android-otp-extractor https://github.com/puddly/android-otp-extractor
- ganeshkrishnan 7y agoDont you need root access to get the app private data? I switched from Microsoft to Google because they advertised as having backup and now I am stuck with Google authenticator without any backup. The only saving grace for Android was adb backup and restore but Google is shutting that down
- pyt 7y agoYou do need root access, unfortunately. Even backing up the filesystem with `tar` is troublesome: https://github.com/dlenski/tetherback https://github.com/dlenski/tetherback I really hoped Google would have allowed some way to locally make full Android backups by now but I guess that's not compatible with their business model.
