Install ↔ Compare

Okta Verify is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to enhance your app security by implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA). It ensures that only you can access your accounts by requiring a second verification step during sign-in.

Users can authenticate using a push notification sent to their device, enter a temporary 6-digit code, or use biometric options if enabled by their organization. Okta Verify also integrates seamlessly with QR code scanning during setup, making device enrollment quick and secure. This extension helps protect your online identity with trusted two-step verification methods, complying with enterprise-grade security standards.

User reviews

Users report that Okta Verify often fails to deliver reliable push notifications for authentication, requiring repeated interaction or app reopening. The app launches slowly, and sometimes enters infinite loops or gets stuck, causing frustration. It lacks clear error feedback and has intrusive notification behavior without options to opt out. However, it works adequately when notifications are received and is necessary for workplace two-factor authentication with biometric support. Users desire improved reliability, responsiveness, and user control over notifications.

Pros

App works as intended when notifications are received and authenticated successfully.
Push notifications arrive for authentication requests.
Provides necessary two-factor authentication for workplace and secure access.
Supports biometric authentication (fingerprint).

Cons

Push notifications frequently fail or require multiple taps to authenticate.
App sometimes enters infinite loops or gets stuck, requiring reopening or retrying.
Slow app launch and delayed push notification delivery causing failed authentications.
Lack of adequate feedback or error messages when authentication fails.
No option to disable intrusive or repeated notifications or background running.

More than half the time, responding to the push notification isn't enough. You have to open the app, see the failed message, and tap the button in the app for the signal to finally send. This program is awful, and the lack of developer email address to send hate mail to tells me they all know it sucks.

Slow to launch for 2FA. I have to login to my VPN on my computer twice every single time, because the first time always fails. 100% of the time. Seemingly because the app notification doesn't launch fast enough the first time (you only get about 1 second to tap approve before it times out). The second time, the app is probably already to go in recent app memory. Please fix this, iOS users don't have the same problem.
