WHICH IS BETTER APP FOR 2FA SECURITY? GOOGLE AUTHITICATORE OR AUTHY???

in #cryptocurrency6 years ago (edited)

Hello Friends,

Today I’m sharing my opinion about 2FA security apps comparison Google authenticator v/s Authy app
In today every account needs security protection for our account safety from hackers. For safety purpose we use password which is alphabet, number, character and min length 8-12 but now a days this password hack easily by hackers …..So we use extra layer of security that is sms and 2fa. For sms it’s ok but not much security then 2fa
For 2 factor security everyone will say Google authenticator right?
But one more app is there you know?

That’s is Authy App.

Yes, let’s start some of main point of view about Authy app which is I mostly like…
Authy is same application as same Google authenticator.
You can easily download it from google paly store or iTunes. For both android and iOS application available.it also generate 6 digit code for every account you add same as google authenticator

Now what is the different and I like most about the Authy app is

Authy app can work same as google authenticator for sure ……

Authy app support multiple device functionality

Authy app is sync all your account with all device simultaneously….

Authy application available for Android, Apple, Windows, Desktop…

Google Authenticator Lakes Multi Device Support

Google Authenticator is only available on mobile devices.

Google authenticator has no encrypted recovery backups.

From my point of view I will switch to Authy what’s your view???
Which app you are using now????

Thanks to tell the alternative of google authenticator.

Authy is good but which parson use google athenticator ...wo kyo change karega...usme bhi koi dikkat nahi h .ha for new parson or new account can use authy athenticator

you are right but in google authenticator if you lost your phone then you lost all your account code.....you have request all account site admin to remove your goolge authenticator to reset your account....in authy you can verify and you same account code in multiple device

Yes ye to sahi h ...iagree

Authy started crashing on my phone. Extremely frustrating, hope they get to fix it, I did send in a report. Restarted my phone, reinstalled the app - still the same story. Luckily I saw this article - didn't know there was a desktop app. It will do until they fix the issue with my phone. So thanks!

yes .....multiple device is the main features which i likely most ....ou can do it and share your your view how's that afterword ...i didn't try desktop yet...
