About this app

ID.me Authenticator is a simple and free Two Factor Authentication (2FA) solution for your ID.me account. It keeps your online accounts secure on websites that support 2FA. This app generates 6-digit Time-Based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) and PUSH notification based one-touch authentication.

You can enroll and connect ID.me Authenticator to your account for 2FA by scanning the QR code at setup time.

ID.me Authenticator for PUSH based authentication: You enter your username and password when signing into your account, then approve the push notification sent to your phone. You will need to enroll and connect ID.me Authenticator to your ID.me account to enable this feature.

Ratings and reviews

This is the worst app ever, it doesn't show up anywhere on my phone, I have to search in the play store, then I can open it from there. Then, once I do get it open, the ONLY site I use it for, says the security code is not right. This is soooo frustrating! Not to mention, when you re-authenticate yourself, on your phone it says successful, yet it doesn't reflect anywhere, you're still stuck in a loop hellscape.

It took me approximately 325 logins and about 30 uploads of the three (3!!!) items of identification required to be accepted by ID. me! Not a fun way to spend a weekend trying to get EDD verified!! Thanks a lot... because of the delay, I was unable to make the window required to get accepted! For anyone reading this review, I suggest you get verified some other way. As for customer support services are concerned... good luck with that...

The most frustration experience ever! This APP is slow, hard to work with & glitchy. You have to constantly repeat the login process over & over again. Not because it's required as much as it is needed, because the APP just won't verify you. You need it for unemployment, so you have to stick with it, but that only makes the experience worse. It doesn't like certain phones & you much use your phone. You can't do it all on your computer. It's simply a painful process.
