    However, those who synced their desktop apps with the mobile versions have discovered that some of their tokens did not correctly synchronize, making their associate accounts inaccessible.

    Lol

        Yeah, laughing at the customers (who were making a good decision to make sure they had 2FA enabled) is kind of a dick move.

        But from the perspective of the company fucking up that bad it’s funny.

          I use their phone app. I sure have a weekend chore to get the fuck off that app.

            I’ve been moving over to Okta’s app. Wondering if I should pick something else though. All of my credentials are in 1Password, but I don’t want my 2FA in the same place.

            • TJA!

              Yes, I wouldn’t know where to move to.

              Well to give you another option, Bitwarden made a standalone authenticator app that is presumably secured with the same care as the regular Bitwarden password manager app.

                Nice, thanks! This is what I was looking for. Something that handled solely 2FA.

              Aegis on Android is also very nice (and open source).

            Yeah, I told everyone at my company about it 2 months ago. I moved everything to bit warden.
