  • andOTP

    Discontinued [Unmaintained] Open source two-factor authentication for Android

  • aegis along with andotp both have some feature overlap, if you want one for work and another for personal. https://github.com/andOTP/andOTP

  • KeeFarce

    Extracts passwords from a KeePass 2.x database, directly from memory.

  • I'm not sure how that defeats the purpose of 2FA. If anything, critical things like 2FA codes being stored locally on your device are more dangerous. Just because it's online doesn't mean it is suddenly insecure. By your logic, password managers being online and cross-platform are also somehow insecure, yet everybody expects those as the most basic features. I don't want to get into a long-winded, pointless "everything on the internet is insecure!" discussion, but I just don't see your point.

  • google-authenticator-exporter

    Get the TOTP secrets exported by Google Authenticator

  • I just migrated to aegis from Google. I used https://github.com/krissrex/google-authenticator-exporter Which requires you to have nodejs on a computer.
