   Of course can you use KeePass and apps that utilize kdbx files as a TOTP generator. Just read it up.

   Simple, open source, no ad, import/export of your data

   Positive comment by KeenFlosser · Dec 2, 2025

   FOSS alternative to other authenticator services. Works without issues while keeping it simple and functional.

   Positive comment by Kelson V · Jul 26, 2025

   More flexible, can add an additional layer of security on top of your codes, lets you organize your codes into categories, doesn't depend on Google for cloud backups, and it's easy to import from Google Auth.

    Keepass2Android vs Google Authenticator Comments

    Positive comment by Guest · Feb 18, 2019

    Keepass2Android supports TOTP. The better thing is, TOTP seed works with desktop applications too. Therefore, you need only one database for desktop and mobile devices. Also, built-in Keepass keyboard allows autofill all inputs from one place, you don't need to switch between applications.

    best alternative with cloud, but it is not open source

    Positive comment by Guest · Feb 9, 2020

    Authy has a an auto-backup feature, Google authenticator doesn't. Google authenticator doesn't have any way to export/backup the keys.

    Positive comment by Guest · Aug 30, 2018

    I like it's clean design and the fact that you can access all of your codes on your computer and not just your phone
