Hello! I’m in the process of slowly de-googling my life and taking my privacy more seriously.
I currently use Google Authenticator for 2fa at the moment.
I am currently dreading swapping those to Aegis, which requires a password every time I want to use it (that’s very inconvenient, to be honest) while with Google’s I can just open the app and get the necessary code right away; no password required.
Should I just stop being lazy, suck it up, and make the switch? I know I’m being a bit of a baby.
Edit: Okay, apparently I can use my fingerprint scanner instead, which is a LOT better, so I’ll stop being a lazy shit and do the swap tomorrow. Cheers!
Final Edit: I made the switch to Aegis. Already made a backup, and I have Biometrics setup. Ty everyone!
There are several ways! First, take a screenshot (power + vol. ~~up~~ down is the shortcut for me, not sure if this is an Android default).
Then email it to yourself, or plug in your phone with UTP to a computer and move it out of the picture folder, or print from your phone to a wifi-enabled printer, or use something like Google Keep and sync it to your computer, etc.
Not sure if you’re joking but thankfully you can’t take a screenshot of Google Auth.
And emailing it would completely defeat the purpose of 2FA
