Keyward: Authenticator App

Keyward is the two-factor authenticator that never locks you out, and never charges you for your own codes.

Free forever, unlimited. Add as many accounts as you like: scan the QR code from a site's two-factor settings, pick a screenshot of it, or type the setup key. Keyward shows the six- or eight-digit code with a countdown, and a tap copies it.

You can't lose them. Make an encrypted backup file whenever you like and keep it in Files, Google Drive or your email. Only your password opens it. Getting a new phone? "Move to new phone" shows QR codes that the new phone scans, with no cloud in between. Keyward reminds you when your accounts changed since your last backup.

Moving from Google Authenticator? Export your accounts there and scan the transfer codes with Keyward. All accounts come across in one go.

Private and secure. Your secret keys are stored in this phone's secure keystore and never leave it. Turn on app lock to require your fingerprint, face unlock or screen lock, and codes are hidden in the app switcher. Screenshots of Keyward are blocked. No account, no server for your codes, no ads, no analytics.

Works with any site that supports authenticator apps (TOTP and HOTP, including SHA-256, SHA-512 and 8-digit codes).

Keyward Pro is optional and only adds organisation and convenience: folders, custom colours and issuer glyphs, hide codes until tapped, light, dark and AMOLED black themes, and CSV or otpauth export. $1.99 per month, $9.99 per year, or $19.99 once for lifetime. The purchase screen shows the exact price and the next charge date before you pay, and Settings explains how to cancel. Your codes, backup and transfer are never behind the paywall.
