@fanch @bearstech je l'utilise depuis un peu plus de 2 ans, j'avais un peu fait le tour des possibilités. J'ai complété avec une #onlykey pour déverrouiller le gestionnaire quand je suis sur ordinateur, ce qui me permet d'utiliser un mot de passe fort. Sur le tel, j'utilise la biométrie.
Je me sers aussi de l'#otp pour rassembler tout dans la même application afin de m'éviter des manipulations parfois douloureuses(fibro), ça simplifie aussi la sauvegarde. J'ai utilisé #aegis avant ça, et encore avant #andOTP. Bref, jusqu'à maintenant, je suis comblé.

@lil5 I dislike like it when these things happen in

We are too much dependent upon people who selflessly infest time, into creating & maintaining code, which often grows out into complex programs & libraries

Programmers burnout is so common Place it's not funny anymore

For example I use on my older (it has a go variant of the OS)

The programmer stopped maintaining which means it's not compiled for new versions of Android anymore
Tremendous loss

In we need to Cherish or
Burnout is a Serious issue which can disrupt an important set of software

It can be a catastrophe when no substitute programmer can be found who is of maintainer quality

I have this problem with the excellent program fantastic but not recompiled anymore, due to zero maintainer, so I can only run it to Android v13 max.

¡Please help there!

#andOTP wird nicht mehr gepflegt und ist auf neueren Android-Version nicht mehr lauffähig. Daher steht irgendwann die Migration zu #Aegis an. Dank #opensource ist die Migration denkbar einfach. Mit einem kleinen Python-Script wird die Datenbank entschlüsselt und aus den Einträgen QR-Codes erzeugt, die von jeder anderen App eingelesen werden können.

Kleine Anleitung gefällig?

@rostbot einige Jahre war ich glücklich mit andOTP , musste aber feststellen, dass die App nicht weiter gepflegt wird (abandoned). Seit etwa 1 Woche bin ich umgestiegen auf #Aegis. Dort konnte ich den Export aus andOTP problemlos importieren und ich kann auch hier Sicherungen anlegen. Das ganze ohne Cloud o.ä. damit nix "wegkommt". Von mir klare Empfehlung, auch für Umsteiger von #andOTP

I am looking for a new #2fa app, especially for #totp tokens. Has anyone here experiences with #2fas ( 2fas.com/ ) and knows whether it is secure and good?
Also does anybody has a good migration path away from #andotp since that it no longer maintained?
Thanks for all the great recommendations. For multiple reasons I am also seeking something with iOS support.

I found out that andOTP is now unmaintained, so I decided to find a new home for my OTP for multi-factor authentication or MFA in Android. I wanted to give a try to FreeOTP but I couldn't just restore a backup from one to the other, so I made a migration script from andOTP to FreeOTP (for now only URI format work).

@sezduck

As #Android App I would recommend #andOTP. It supports the standard method that every web site is using: #TOTP (Time-based One Time Password).

TOTP is also an open standard. No secret source code or patent here. You can even program it yourself.
rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6238

To back up your TOTP for an account, you only have to export the secret key. I store them in my #Keepass database file for example. Do not give the secret key away.
