Ratings and reviews

I don't understand why this needed to be released without it being ready. Recent update just allowed importing from other authenticators, which is great, but it's still missing so many important features. You can't reorder any of your entries. You can't add any logos like you can in aegis. You can't change the formatting of any of the items. For example, you're unable to make the numbers any bigger for readability purposes. They should have been cooked much longer before it was released.

It's brand new and still in testing, which becomes apparent very quickly. No way to reorder or even group items. The plus symbol in the bottom right corner obscures the 8th code, so you better have more items, to be able to scroll a bit, or you won't get to see the 8th item's number. No import, only export. But it's not done and I'm not using it exclusively (yet). The roadmap looks promising. Here's 4 stars to a good start and I look forward to updating to 5 once they're deserved.

As a long time Bitwarden supporter, I was excited to see this release. However at this time it's quite minimalistic, falling short in many areas as when compared to alternatives. While the option to export the vault does exist, there is no option to encrypt these exports, and there is no sync functionality to the Bitwarden cloud, nor to private cloud. With that in mind, I would still recommend Authy for the average user, and Aegis for advanced users. Aegis in particular is far superior.
