I replaced my iPhone in-store and they transferred all my data. All my data except my Google Authenticator codes.
I lost access to at least one account as a result and had to submit identity documents to recover the account.
I now make sure I have backup codes stored somewhere.
Interestingly, in the past couple of weeks, Google Authenticator can now back up to your Google account.
- tough 3y agoAuthy is a nice alternative to google's Authenticator Was bought by Twilio, but still rocking. I love the plugin for raycast.app for it You set a master password and can login back with your phone number/master password in any device Much easier to not fuck up 2FA with it when changing phones
- yrro 3y agoFreeOTP is another alternative - passphrase-encrypted backups can be saved to local or cloud storage and imported to FreeOTP running on another device.
