Review summary

User reviews highlight a mostly positive view of the app's simplicity and strong security features, including anti-peeping and easy data import from Google Authenticator, plus multiple methods to add accounts and pinning favorite ones. However, recurrent issues overshadow the positives: setup often fails or loops, codes may not be sent or accepted, and login problems persist. The pricing model is a major downside, with no true free tier and a subscription mindset seen as overpriced. Some integrations clash, and privacy concerns about camera and data access appear in several reviews.

Pros

Simple and solid to use.
Strong security features including anti-peeping/privacy protection.
Ability to import data from Google Authenticator.
Supports multiple ways to add accounts (scan codes, manual input, uploading).
Conveniently pins/favorites to top for quick access.

Cons

Setup/installation issues with loops and unresponsive screens.
Codes not sent or not accepted; login failures.
Pricing model requires a subscription; no true free option; perceived high cost.
Some integrations don't work as expected (e.g., Facebook, login.gov) and general usability issues.
Privacy concerns about camera access and data collection.

2026-06-18	Bo*****	I just want to be able to use my basic authenticator when I need it, but I keep getting these ads trying to force me to buy the premium version. I don’t want the premium version. I just want to use the app as my MFA tool.

2026-05-27	Co*****	Well. So every time you open the app there’s a misleading screen that gives you pro version pricing and it feels a little like having your accounts held hostage until you find the subtle skip button. Today I couldn’t find the skip button. I think they removed it? Maybe I’m blind, who knows. Anyways I switched to “Proton Authenticator” and it works. Fine. No hostage situations. Would recommend. A donation button would have been fine. I’d throw you guy 5 bucks for saving me time - but I’m not paying 70$ for a product that in no way differentiates itself from the other authenticator apps. Lastly I feel like “Auth for Google Authenticator” is a misleading name. They are in no way associated with Google best I can tell. Doesn’t inspire trust in a security app. Once again - would recommend a switch to Proton Authenticator.
