Aegis is still good

smeeps ,

Authy is trash anyway.

AmbiguousProps ,

The author is implying that Authy is the only option for some reason. It’s not, this is a non-issue.

Authy is the last thing a security minded person should ever have been using. Counting the not so recent security breach and all.

“We don’t want to punish users of alternative OSes, but there’s really no other option at the moment,” Wilden added before his blunt conclusion. “Play Integrity has absolutely no way to guess whether a given custom OS completely subverts the Android security model.”

Then don’t. Allow the user to choose what to do with their device and shut the fuck up and get out of the way. You are punishing users for using alternative OSes. That is exactly what you are doing.

Lol, what a fucking joke of a toolbag.

Play IS insecure, full of malware, and is itself malicious.

Fuck that douchebag with a pineapple.

This is a non-issue. Why not use Aegis and backup your own credentials? I wouldn’t trust Authy (or any 2FA app that includes cloud backup).

Other decent options:

TOTP is an open standard, no need to stick to Authy.

Penguincoder ,

I recommend Aegis as well. Does what it needs without shadiness going on.

Aegis all the way. Looked at authy and hardpassed after reading the permissions it requires. Your job is to calculate the OTP. You don’t need wifi access if you’re an offline OTP calculator.

There are tons of other two factor authentication apps that can be used that are totally open source and available on the fdroid application store. The first 2 that come to mind are KeepassDX and FreeOTP
