About this app

Okta Verify is a lightweight app that allows you to securely access your apps via 2-step verification, ensuring that you, and only you, can access your app accounts.

While you access your apps, you'll choose a 2-step verification method provided by Okta Verify to finish signing in. You can verify your identity using a push notification sent to your device (if enabled by your organization), a temporary 6-digit code, or biometrics (if enabled by your organization).

We do request permission to use your device camera so that you can scan a QR code when you enroll your device with Okta.

Ratings and reviews

Worked great for several months, now it won't open on Mondays after I haven't used it for two days. Push notifications won't send from my laptop to my phone. Every Monday I have to forceclose the app, uninstall it, then reinstall and go through all the steps reintroduce it to the app on the laptop. It's such a hassle! Sometimes that doesn't even work and I go several days not being about to use the phone app at all. What changes created this situation? When will it be fixed?

7-13/25: Push notifications are unstable. Update 7/10/25: push notifications are working again. 7/8/25: Push notifications haven't been working properly for about a week now. The app wouldn't open but I was able to fix that by restarting my phone. That's whe I found that the push notifications would go through if the app was open. However, that's not how it's supposed to work and us very inconvenient.

This app was working fine a few months ago but now it fails to open. I'm assuming it was the recent update that's interfering & preventing it to function properly. Uninstalling then re-installing has caused such an inconvenience for me. I have to contact the help desk/IT department at my workplace to set in my credentials for this app multiple times. I've tried restarting my phone, re-opening the app, just for it to briefly work and then I'm back the beginning of the cycle of troubleshooting
