  1. 2 Factor authenticator app question

    I guess I have to look into using a 2FA app at last so...

    I am probably late to the party on this, having resisted both Microsoft and Google's offerings up to now. I guess I'm just suspicious of these companies we used to love in the early days.

    I've looked at the PCMag review and it seems that their top choice - 2FAS - might fit my requirements. I use both Android (mobile) and Microsoft (laptop, desktop) OS.

    Has anyone any experience with this app? Any thoughts on it that might be helpful? Use on Windows and/or Android?

    Or are there any better ideas?

    Cheers!

  2. Hey @bitwarden you are being misleading and it's making us sad.

    Your website currently has a misleading link (and its affecting us being able to recommend ur tools).

    Your dedicated Authentor app on the "Bitwarden Authenticator' page, has a Download it today button at the top of the page > That SHOULD take folks to the Authenticator download links (like at the bottom of the page), but instead it takes people to download the FULL Bitwarden Password Manager software.

    Currently we're having to recommend folks use an alternative service as this is coming across as sneaky and dirty tactics. Really hoping it was unintentional. Regardless, pls fix so that this link takes ppl to download the tool they are expecting.

    We were hoping to recommend ur service at our upcoming Digital Lounges, but we only endorse the most ethical open providers and stuff like this is the stuff the community notices.
