With many services requiring the move to enable 2FA, the latest one being Github, perhaps it's a good idea to have a recommended 2FA service thread.<p>Here's my experience with 2FA so far:<p>Microsoft Authenticator: Used to log in to work account. iPhone reset -> cannot access the account anymore. Was on phone for 30 minutes with IT department and they were not happy.<p>What are your recommended 2FA apps?
I currently use the Salesforce one because when I upgrade my phone restoring the Authenticator on the new device actually works. If there is a better one I am all ears.<p><a href="https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.salesforce_authenticator_restore_from_backup.htm&language=en_us&type=5" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.salesforce_a...</a>

i'm a big fan of hardware token - connected via usb/nfc!<p>especially because there is no need for a mobile device and they are fairly cheap.<p>and: because they are cheap, i'm using at least 2 per account/service where such keys are supported.<p>if i lose the one on my (physical) key-ring, i always have a working replacement at home ... :)<p>just my 0.02€
