2023-08-30 | Richard Davies | No documentation. No syncing, so can't import my existing 2FAs. Appears to only be useful if setting up a new 2FA - given I've already put all my 'at risk' accounts onto 2FA, makes this useless. | ||
2022-11-21 | Peter Walsh | As soon as I installed this extension my inbox began being flooded with spam, it would seem the author is selling your email address and potentially other data. | ||
2021-08-06 | Gregg Duncan | It works for a while but the timer gets out of sync over a very short time and you have to enter the code at the beginning of the 30 second count down for it to work. | ||
2021-04-29 | John Weiss | no import | ||
2021-02-25 | William Williamson | I love this app easy to use. When I consider how important 2Fa is to my information security, I have backed up my recovery codes in three different email accounts along with storing it at a safe place at my home. it is possible to recover your Authenticator. | ||

2020-11-10 | Samuele Rivardi | Inaffidabile Il servizio si basa su una pagina web che "dovrebbe" registrare e riconoscere le key, ma dopo aver fatto la procedura di attivazione, chiuso il browser e riaperto, l'account è sparito e viene presentato un default "[email protected]" - per fortuna era un account di prova altrimenti ora sarei bloccato fuori. Totalmente inaffidabile | ||
