You add your Google (and potentially other) accounts in the app - then you need to open the app to log in to your account.
The app is "forgetting" and no longer displaying the accounts you add, such that you open Authenticator and it's empty.
You can no longer log in to your Google account without one of the 10 printed one-time access codes you made when you first set it up.

- Tichy 13y agoHm, the point of authenticator is to not use the phone, because phjone numbers may be more vulnerable. wasn't there a case of social hacking where the telco forwarded to hacker's phone?
- Semaphor 13y agoThat was a case of them circumventing the 2FA he had, they just granted access. Authenticator is a mobile phone app, how are you supposed not to use your phone with it?
