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.

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.

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.

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.

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
