User Reviews

Across multiple reviews, the app is described as deceptive and costly, charging about $50/year with refunds often denied. It is frequently confused with the legitimate Microsoft Authenticator and viewed as a scam. Users report misleading promotion in search results, forcing a subscription to proceed, and login access issues. Support is criticized as unhelpful or unresponsive. Overall, the consensus warns others to avoid this app to prevent unwanted charges and poor service.
Pros
Cons
  • Hidden/mandatory subscription charges (~$49.99/year) at or shortly after install, with refunds often denied by Apple or the developer.
  • Prominent/top placement in App Store search results (often promoted) that misleads users into downloading.
  • Not the real Microsoft Authenticator; described by multiple reviews as misleading or a scam rather than a legitimate free/paid Microsoft app.
  • Forces users to subscribe to proceed with setup or login; can block access to accounts without paying first.
  • Poor or unresponsive customer support and refund handling; generic replies and no resolution to refund requests.

We pay for 360 for my company and now to log in you want $40.00 each a year. Ridiculous!

I am obligated to use the Authenticator app to be able to open my Microsoft computer in my home using company VPN. And for that I will be charged $49 per year, for a mandatory security step that I don’t even care if it’s available or not.
