About this app

Authenticator Pro generates Two Factor Authentication (2FA) codes for your online accounts. TOTP, HOTP, mOTP (Mobile-OTP) and Steam are supported. The generated codes are one time tokens that provide an extra layer of security to your online accounts. After scanning a simple QR code, your account is protected.

Ratings and reviews

I've been using this across any account that'll let me for a while now and I've gotta say, I love it. Simple, clean UI, easy to make backups, plus WearOS support if that's your thing. My only complaint is that the WearOS companion can be a little unresponsive or slow to load if you have a long list of accounts, but that's more of a problem with underpowered watch hardware than a flaw in the app itself.

Works well on my watch, and is one of the only options for wear os. Very easy to add codes on the phone, and the watch has access to all the same code generators. Along with a touchscreen interface, it utilizes the scroll wheel if your watch has it, a nice touch that some apps lack. My one gripe is that it doesn't work without a phone connection (watch can't be in airplane mode). On the other hand, I don't usually need access to a code for the few times I don't have my phone with me.

SHORT VERSION: Nice upgrade from Google's app if you only use it on your phone, incredible upgrade if you use WearOS, less useful if you use Tizen. DETAILS: I've found I really love this app - integration with WearOS was a big win for me, and the categories and icons are a nice ease-of-use bonus! Plus, it just works - which is a critical part of a 2fa application. Unfortunately, now I have a new watch on another platform, and may have to look elsewhere. If this app added Tizen support as well it would be perfect, though I understand if that doesn't happen and won't dock a star for lacking a feature this doesn't advertise in the first place.
