About this app

Duo Mobile works with Duo Security's two-factor authentication service to make logins more secure. The application generates passcodes for login and can receive push notifications for easy, one-tap authentication.

Additionally, you can use Duo Mobile to manage two-factor authentication for other application and web services that make use of passcodes.

Note: For Duo accounts, Duo Mobile needs to be activated and linked to your account before it will work. You will receive an activation link as part of Duo's enrollment process. You may add third-party accounts at any time.

Additionally, we will request access to use your camera for the sole purpose of scanning QR codes when activating accounts. Accounts can be activated by other methods if you choose not to do so.

Ratings and reviews

I have to have this app for work. It was not my choice. I didn't want it on my phone bc I did not want notifications and junk while I wasn't working. I was assured this app "wasn't like that". Yet here I am getting notifications at 9:23AM on a Saturday morning, waking me up. Yes, I can turn off all notifications, but then the app won't work correctly during work hours and having to individually turn notifications on and off each day isn't realistic, either.

It’s not available on Android watches, but it is on the Apple Watch. Unlike 19 years ago, building an iOS app today isn't drastically different from building an Android app. With tools like Flutter or React Native, we now have cross-platform compatibility that makes it easier to develop for both systems simultaneously. If the developers haven't created it, it is because they clearly don't want it !

Fine as long as you NEVER need to change devices. Which is obviously unrealistic. Easily the biggest flaw with this app is that they make it very difficult for you to use your account on a new device, the process is unnecessarily complicated. And if you're trying to switch from an iPhone to Android or vice versa - forget it! Per their own Support/Help section, it is currently impossible to transfer your DuoMobile account cross-platform, all u can do is delete your old account and start all over.
