Rest assured, nothing will change for you

If I had a dollar for every time I've read that, only to have everything change 6-12 months later, I'd be rich.

    Does anyone know anything about Mobime? Their website it absolutely useless.

    If anyone's looking to jump ship, here are a few alternatives. Bear in mind, though, these are not (yet) official PrivacyGuides recommendations. All of the apps are FOSS.

    • Authenticator Last updated 12th February DOES NOT SUPPORT EXPORTING KEYS

    • 2FAS Last updated 29th July

    • Tofu Last updated 29th February 2022 DOES NOT SUPPORT EXPORTING KEYS

    • ente Auth Last updated 28th July REQUIRES ONLINE ACCOUNT

    • FreeOTP Last updated 19th May PRODUCT OF RED HAT

    I was actually looking to switch to Raivo from 2FAS Auth. Now I’m going to be taking my time. 😬

    Curious why you were planning to switch from 2FAS. Currently on Raivo and was wondering if 2FAS is just as good

    I was interested in trying out Raivo and I thought I read a post not recommending 2FAS either here or before on Reddit.

    It was on reddit if you search by 2FAS Auth there’s a thread in the privacy guides subreddit and someone mentions this:

    OTP Auth would be a good alternative.

    For me both (Raivo and OTP Auth) are trustworthy.

    2FAS I wouldn’t use. Quote from their privacy policy:

    In accordance with the terms and conditions of our Terms of Service, we collect and store the following Personal Information about our Users: Device ID (including brand, model, unique ID, operating system info, and storage state) Email address (for Users of 2FAS API, 2FAS Plugin, and 2FAS Vault Services) Phone number, if provided by you Cookies and analytics

    Also does 2FAS have the ability to export the codes to a different app as I couldn’t find it be honest?
