РЕБЯТ НЕ УСТАНАВЛИВАЙТЕ ЭТОТ АУТЕНТИФИКАТОР, потерял доступ ко всем сайтам, вчера подключил, сегодня уже всех кодов нет, потерял в итоге 300$, НИ В КОЕМ СЛУЧАЕ НЕ ПОЛЬЗУЙТЕСЬ, лучше не поленитесь, зайдите лишний раз в гугл аутентификатор на мобилке, не повторяйте моих ошибок, приложение полная ху**я

Very helpful for logging into my University email, etc. Just make sure you're able to get in with an SMS / other code too just in case you reset chrome and it deletes them.
