Thanks for responding. I should have mentioned I've been a user of andOTP for a few years so that's why I brought the comparison up. I wish more projects (including Aegis) mentioned what distinguishes themselves from very similar options.
I think the fact that Aegis allows you to import from a number of other authenticators, notably proprietary ones, is an important feature in getting people to move over to an open source equivalent, which is something I respect.
One minor correction to what you said though - andOTP doesn't relock every time you switch apps. I tried this just now to verify this.
- shaicoleman 6y agoI tried andOTP again now, and I figured out why it was locking for me. I usually switch apps by clicking on the icon on the home screen, rather than the task switcher. When I launch it from the home screen it always re-locks.
- iFreilicht 6y agoThis can be turned off in the settings: "Security" -> "Re-lock when going into the background"
- shaicoleman 6y agoI've already unticked all the Re-lock settings, and it still locks for me every time I launch it from the home screen/app drawer. I tried also on another phone, and same thing.
- iFreilicht 6y agoThat seems like a bug, I didn't experience that before.
