About this app

Google Authenticator adds an extra layer of security to your online accounts by adding a second step of verification when you sign in. This means that in addition to your password, you'll also need to enter a code that is generated by the Google Authenticator app on your phone. The verification code can be generated by the Google Authenticator app on your phone, even if you don't have a network or cellular connection.
* Sync your Authenticator codes to your Google Account and across your devices. This way, you can always access them even if you lose your phone.
* Set up your Authenticator accounts automatically with a QR code. This is quick and easy, and it helps to ensure that your codes are set up correctly.
* Support for multiple accounts. You can use the Authenticator app to manage multiple accounts, so you don't have to switch between apps every time you need to sign in.
* Support for time-based and counter-based code generation. You can choose the type of code generation that best suits your needs.
* Transfer accounts between devices with a QR code. This is a convenient way to move your accounts to a new device.
* To use Google Authenticator with Google, you need to enable 2-Step Verification on your Google Account. To get started visit http://www.google.com/2step Permission notice: Camera: Needed to add accounts using QR codes

Very frustrating app. The instructions, in my opinion, are vague at best. I installed, attempted to set up several times, and was a miserable experience every time. Really wanted it to function, is the only app I have that doesn't seem to have complete guidance to get it rolling. Seems as if part of the puzzle is absent, incomplete directions at least. I gave up on this app. Wasn't worth the aggravation it was causing.

Agree with Ken &Travis. Just paid the year's sub and then 2 days later nothing was working right. I haven't been able to log in since about the 1st of Nov. I tried to trouble shoot that just it opens more links: no success. I have tried to contact customer support and explain it to them but I never hear anything back. I even downloaded the new launcher but I now have to create a new character. After playing for 20 years. I am so frustrated.

After most recent update, codes no longer sync properly. It appears the code displayed is delayed by around 10 seconds or so. The guidence is to go to "setting" and choose the time correction option but the only option within settings is "privacy screen". There is no option for a time correction. I will be looking to switch to another authenticator app. This app did not have this issue prior to the most recent update.
