- krmboya 5y agoI use andOTP[1] installed via f-droid. You can easily get a backup file with your codes. [1] https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP
- simonmales 5y agoThis! Though now Google Authenticator supports transfers, there is less of a need. But I still enjoy using andOTP.
- aorth 5y agoJust FYI, it's possible to backup your codes on Android using Aegis too. No root needed. https://github.com/beemdevelopment/Aegis https://github.com/beemdevelopment/Aegis
- cian 5y agoThankfully this has been fixed. You can now choose "Transfer accounts" (from the menu in the top right corner) to copy everything to Google Authenticator on a new (or backup) phone.
- mmastrac 5y agoInteresting! I ended up going with the LastPass authenticator in the end because of this issue but I am happy to see it fixed.
