GitHub is slowly rolling in 2FA. Any good open source apps that will enable me to activate 2FA token on android? (szmer.info)

If proprietary app is better and more robust I am willing to try it and assess it myself.

Aegis authenticator. Beats all proprietary apps I've tried so far

I'm leaving links here in case anyone needs them

It supports importing data from various 2FA apps and even allows you to generate Steamguard codes.

Steamguard? Since when? That's awesome!

[–] pacjo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I honestly don't know. I set it up with steamguard-cli few months ago and it's working like a charm.

Nothing to worry about when doing that? I'd love to have Valve support 3rd party 2FA apps officially, but oh well

[–] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's been there for quite a few years, I think

[–] miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But Steam itself doesn't officially support doing that?

[–] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

Yes, it doesn't. Or at least they didn't when I started using Aegis for it, I had to import the key from the steam app, because they didn't show any QR codes or such. Not sure if it has changed since then, though.

Yep, it works perfectly

Bitwarden has it too, but eggs in one basket etc.

[–] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 5 points 2 years ago

Also, for bitwarden it's either a paid feature or you have to self host it

One of those apps that just does its job, does it well and I never have to worry about it

[–] BearPear@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

This is the best option. Love the app. But always remember to keep a backup of your tokens.

There is also ente.io authenticator app. It is available on fdroid. I think it supoorts cloud synchronisation as well.
