Password Managers / 2FA Apps I recommend
What is OTP Auth?
OTP Auth is a tool that generates one-time passwords for services like Dropbox and Gmail. It includes a QR code scanning feature for easy account import. The app has a user-friendly interface, featuring a widget for password entry, and an iPad-specific interface. It's ad-free, ensuring a smooth user experience.
OTP Auth calculates both TOTP and HOTP passwords. It supports account import and export via web, mail, or iTunes File Sharing, and includes a Safari extension for direct password input into websites.
For security, OTP Auth requires a password at every launch, and supports Touch ID for unlocking. Accounts can be exported to a password-secured OTP Auth file. The app supports importing and exporting accounts from/to iCloud, with all files encrypted. It does not collect personal data or upload user accounts to external servers.
Comments and Reviews
Switched from Google Authenticator to OTP Auth and I'm really happy I did (even thoguh it was a pain in the ass to create all 2fa codes again, could not import anything from Google Authenticator.
Pros:
Cons:
I prefer OTP Auth as it allows syncing accounts to all iOS devices via iCloud and provides for manual backups. Other authenticators either have no sync/backup or require you to register with their servers via a mobile number.
