About this app

SecureAuth Authenticate is a modern mobile app that verifies your identity so you can securely access your apps. SecureAuth Authenticate supports multi-factor authentication (MFA) for personal, work, or school apps and accounts. The authenticator generates 6-digit one-time passcodes/tokens (OTP codes) used commonly in two-factor authentication (2FA) flows.

SecureAuth Authenticate for personal use
Secure your personal accounts from account takeover with 2-step verification. SecureAuth Authenticate lets you protect your personal Gmail, Outlook, LinkedIn, Dropbox, and thousands of other cloud apps.

Personal features:
• Supports multiple accounts
• Quick QR code set up
• Works offline without Wi-Fi or data connection
• Can be installed to any Wear OS based device.

SecureAuth Authenticate for business use
SecureAuth Authenticate provides additional strong authentication benefits when paired with SecureAuth IDaaS in corporate deployments. The app is designed to work with adaptive and passwordless authentication for cloud/SaaS and on-prem app single sign-on (SSO) scenarios.

Business-critical features:
• Push notifications – Prompt to approve/deny a login that requires MFA
• Symbol-to-accept – High-security prompt requiring user to match a specific symbol
• Unlock detection – Security protection when phone lock protection is disabled
• Anti-cloning – Security protection when phone OS is cloned to another phone
• PIN protection – Prompt to enter PIN to display OTP code
• Offline mode – Generates OTP code for MFA-protected Windows or MacOS login
• QR code or activation link enrollment – Convenient methods to configure the app

Ratings and reviews

It's great, except they make it so unbelievably hard to actually use, especially if you have a personal account. I just upgraded my phone and now need to find another app that works like this one because they seemingly fully removed the personal method. So annoying. Very clearly they wanted to focus on organizations, and that's fine, but don't literally force existing users to drop.

This app works great on my Samsung Galaxy s9. I am trying to get it to work on my Chromebook and every time I open the app it says "This application requires the device screen lock to be enabled". I've triple checked and I have screen lock turned on when it goes to sleep and it can take either a password or a pin (I also tried just a password) and it still gives me this error. Not sure what else I am missing.

New version doesn't close itself after push-to-auth. There's a config for "Authenticate Lite" and what the hell is that? Lastly, if you enter the QR code area, but don't give it camera permissions, you get stuck and have to force-quit the app. It is shinier, yes, and the UI corners have been rounded to laughable proportions, and maybe the amount of info it holds would be useful to someone, but I just want it out of my way. This is the opposite.
