About:
Authy is a cross-platform two-factor authentication (2FA) application that securely stores tokens for various online services. It provides cloud-based backups and multi-device sync, ensuring your 2FA tokens are accessible across your devices. The app generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) to enhance the security of your accounts.
Key Features:
  • Cloud-backed 2FA token storage
  • Multi-device synchronization
  • Encrypted backups
  • Support for multiple accounts
Use Cases:
  • Securing online accounts with 2FA
  • Managing authentication tokens across devices
Alternatives:
  • 1Password – Password manager with integrated 2FA, but requires a paid subscription for full features.
  • Google Authenticator – Simpler, offline-only token storage without cloud backups or sync.
