FreeOTP+ is offline and in fdroid and let’s you export the entries you have saved. No third party needed. Just back it up as a habit every time you add a new entry. Store the backup encrypted with gpg or veracrypt or whatever

And Authy is runbby twillio which is owned by Facebook. Don’t give corporations control over this shit. They’ll take it away whenever they want.

I don’t know why the article chooses Authy to showcase the issue, when it’s an app that is trivially replaced by alternatives (if one is patient enough to migrate). Finance and streaming apps are hardly equivalent on the other hand.

“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.”

We know what this is about, and it’s not about security. It’s about only allowing apps that make shareholders happy.

I’m not sure why the author thinks that Authy is the only option? I’ve never used it on my phone running Graphene.

Authy isn’t even the best option. Especially if you’re the kind of person who is going to run GrapheneOS.

It’s me. My bad. I was running Calyx OS and using authy and also just realized I’m in this boat after switching to Graphene so I finally sacked up and started using Aegis backed up to my nextcloud. I’ll be better.

Does Authy do anything valuable that Aegis doesn’t?

Authy was arguably dogshit.

Built-in synchronization of codes and ability to revoke devices.

You’d need to set up e.g. Syncthing to have at least the sync part with Aegis, but the vendor lock-in of Authy is really not worth it.
