The Google Authenticator app is great. I recently got (TOTP) 2-factor auth for an IRC bot going with Google Authenticator; took about 5 minutes to code it up and set it up. It doesn't use any sort of 3rd party service, just the application running locally on my phone.
TOTP/HOTP is dead simple and, with the open source Google Authenticator app, great for the end user.
- porges 13y agoThere is one terrible thing which is that adding an account for a different service but with the same email will overwrite any account with the same email without prompting you. e.g. setting up 2-factor with MS with the same email you use for Google will overwrite the Google one unless you rename it.
