Description
Authy brings the future of two-factor authentication to the convenience of your iPhone or iPad.
The Authy app generates secure 2 step verification tokens on your device. It helps you protect your account from hackers and hijackers by adding an additional layer of security.
Why Authy is the best multi factor authentication app:
- Secure Cloud Backups:
Did you lose your device and get locked out of all of your accounts? Authy provides secure cloud encrypted backups so you will never lose access to your tokens again. We use the same algorithm that banks and the NSA use to protect their information.
- Multi Device Synchronization:
Are you re-scanning all your QR codes just to add them to your tablet and smartphone? With Authy you can simply add devices to your account and all of your 2fa tokens will automatically synchronize.
- Offline:
Still waiting for an SMS to arrive? Do you travel constantly and lose access to your accounts? Authy generates secure tokens offline from the safety of your device, this way you can authenticate securely even when in airplane mode.
- All of your accounts:
We support most major multi-factor authentication accounts including Facebook, Dropbox, Amazon, Gmail, and thousands of other providers. We also support 8 digit tokens.
- Protect your bitcoins:
Authy is the preferred two factor authentication solution to protect your bitcoin wallet. We are the default 2fa provider for trusted companies like Coinbase, CEX.IO, BitGo and many others.

Ratings and Reviews
Great but freezes!
I’ve got 7 accounts linked to this Authenticator app and they all work as they should with no hiccups. However, when I open the app after closing it a few seconds ago it’ll freeze—sometimes on the passcode screen and sometimes in the accounts screen, not letting me scroll down to select a different account, as well as not allowing me to access in-app settings. During this time I can’t operate the app at all so I have to reset my phone because closing it and opening it won’t fix it.
Please fix this bug! Because apart from it freezing on me like this it’s actually great for what it does. Please fix this in the next update! 👍
Great app, particularly as it’s cross device
I love this app. I particularly love the fact that I can have my 2FA codes on multiple devices. It makes migrating devices so much easier (I realise some people will see this as a security flaw, but personally I welcome it as I frequently change device)
The Apple Watch app isn’t great. Certainly up until the time of writing I couldn’t view codes for longer than a few seconds before it “reset” back to the selection screen. I’ve stopped using it. There have also been the odd issue with Face ID meaning there’s a 5-10 second delay post authorising via Face ID. However this is erratic and hasn’t happened since late May 2020 (written in June 2020) an early June update may have resolved the watch issue, I’ll update the review if it does.
Locked me out of accounts that i frequently used
i have a roblox account and a discord account linked onto this app. i logged out of my roblox account and tried logging back in, which i needed to use authy for. the only problem is that roblox was encrypted on authy - it said i could only decrypt it using a backup password. first off, i had no option to change my backup password on any of my devices. second off, i don’t even have a backup password to begin with. the app told me itself the backup option was disabled, and when i tried enabling it, it asked me for the backup password that i don’t have. this means i’m locked out of my roblox account (which i’ve spent money on) and will be locked out of discord if i get logged out and also can’t log on to either on any new devices if my current ones get locked or damaged. thank you authy, really appreciate it.
