Ratings and reviews

Too good to be true. I was happy the first 5 minutes, an Android synology app that actually works. I started porting them in one by one until I got the message "You have reached the maximum number of OTP profiles, please remove some profiles and try again" Really? Don't invest your time and effort in it... Allows 50 max.

The app is slow to respond and when I try to approve from my watch it always says that there is a connection problem and it fails. Then I have to wait for a timeout to occur so I can try again. It also appears that this application is using outdated algorithms and is not very secure anyway.

Works most of the time. When your session is somehow expired in this app, you cannot authenticate news sign-in through this app. When you try to re-enable authentication, you receive the wonderful message "an authentication request was sent to your mobile device". Fan-ffing-tastic since you cannot authenticate through the app because the sessions is somehow expired. Guess I'm going back to using passwords since those at least work 100% of the time.
