Do I need Authy if I use Google Authenticator?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/androidapps

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Aegis

    A free, secure and open source app for Android to manage your 2-step verification tokens.

  • Authy is much better than Google, but Aegis is better than Authy. Personally, I strongly prefer Aegis, which is open-source (unlike Authy and Google Authenticator which is proprietary). Aegis allows you to make a backup of all your 2FA accounts, export them from one device and import them into another device. Your backups can be automatic or manual, and they can be to a local micro-SD or to the cloud. (I believe Authy does backups too.)

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
