What authenticator app do you use? How do you backup? Any open source self hosted options?

    I use Microsoft Authenticator. I hadn’t looked into open source options at the time when I needed one and it was the most immediately apparent alternative to the Google Authenticator on the Play Store.

      I use Microsoft Authenticator for work because of its integration with Microsoft 365. I hate the new “here, enter this two-digit number in the Authenticator app on your phone” pop-up, though I do understand the reasoning behind it.

      Outside of work it’s Authy, though.

      I use Microsoft Authenticator as well - I’m on iOS and it’s the only app I found that has Cloud Sync which comes in really handy when I change phones.

      I believe iOS Passwords also supports OTPs but the UX of the passwords app always felt a bit clunky to me.
