Do you have Android? iPhones are set to backup automatically to iCloud by default. I don’t even think about backups at all.
I upgraded to an iPhone 13 about 6 months ago and it was almost completely seamless to restore everything to it.
- Alupis 4y agoYour authenticator apps won't be backed up. They require you to export them to a QR code or some other printed format... then "restored" once you setup your new phone. Probably a security policy thing more than a technology thing... but the result is the same. TOTP is dangerous for the wrong user.
- happyopossum 4y agoThat’s up to the developer, it’s not a requirement of TOTP apps.
- jonhohle 4y agoFor the past several years both macOS and iOS have TOTP built into the password manager. It’s non-obvious how to set it up and doesn’t auto-prompt readily like password management does, but I’ve moved all of my TOTP over and have a backup, it’s synced to all my devices, and I don’t need a dedicated TOTP app.
