I just wish Microsoft would let me use any other authenticator app instead of their garbage one. So now I've got one from Google with 99% of my accounts on it, one for Microsoft for one of 4 MS accounts, and one for the USG for IRS/etc. Waste of space and poorly-duplicated functionality.
- delecti 3y agoMicrosoft does let you use other authenticators. My non-MS authenticator app has 3 MS accounts on it.
- pc86 3y agoThe funny thing is I have other MS accounts in my Google authenticator, but for one of my accounts specifically (maybe because it's the only one with Azure spend every month?) even though I have it in Google, I kept getting told on login I needed to set up MS Authenticator or SMS - no options for a different Auth app.
- delecti 3y agoI'd attribute this to MS flakiness, or possibly AD policies. I've got work MS accounts, each connected to a multi-million dollar azure account, and each connected to a non-MS authenticator.
