And you need the master password that you created to restore the configuration you made before!
And if you don't like Cloud storage because it's less secure!
Use Aegis, they have a backup feature that you can use!
And you can restore it to another device if needed!
So what you’re basically saying is that Authy pretty much (sort off) turns the app 2FA into an sms 2FA (well, only when you want to restore your keys)? That’s neat!!!
That for sure solves the issue with losing access to your keys!
It’s not as convenient as SMS though... with SMS, iOS autofills the code for you... so you don’t need to get out of safari to copy the code from the app and hope it doesn’t expire before you go back to safari and submit it. (No, I’m not lazy... it’s just that repetitive inconveniences like these irritate me)
Thank you Post4VPS and VirMach for providing me with VPS9! But now it’s time to say farewell due to my studies.
