Thankfully now with Google Authenticator at least you can export the config to another device. I periodically do this to my old Android phone so I have a backup

- hot_gril 4y agoYeah but I already wrote off Goog Authenticator after last time. The original version didn't let you transfer codes, and the devs said that's WAI for so long before listening to common sense. Also, such a strict auth system needs to be 100% clear what my credentials are and where they're stored, and it's unclear here. People today still get confused about whether or not Android or iPhone backups (local or cloud) contain them. They could've taken a page from the cryptocurrency wallets, which give you a recovery word-list upon first setup and force you to understand how it works.
