Step Two 4+

I’ve been waiting a long time for a single app on my iOS devices and my Macs that can handle OTP codes and that syncs through iCloud. Those that have already been out I shy’ed away from due to the privacy policys listed for the app. After using it for just a day I purchased the pro version and set up all my accounts for this app. It’s become a daily user and it’s worked like a charm and syncs perfectly across all my devices. Only suggestion I’d make it to add the capability of making an encrypted backup. The backups are easy to make but having the option to encrypt them would give some peace of mind in archiving my backups.

I wanted an authenticator that is synced with my iPad, iPhone and most importantly, Apple Watch. I recently had to set up 2MFA with a website that, said in its help pages, ONLY with google authenticator. I used Step Two instead of google authenticator and it worked! I could use Microsoft authenticator but it has a large app footprint. I prefer Step Two for small installation footprint and ability to use with any of my Apple devices. If I lose all of my devices, I can still buy another apple device and still access my Step Two codes.

Step Two is a lightning fast and dead simple app for TOTP based two factor authentication. It syncs with iCloud, has a reliable and similarly snappy Apple Watch app, and does exactly what it says it will and nothing more.

Quick search if you have a ton of accounts, can rearrange for your most used logins, and it smartly suggests a color for the service you're using.

Super pleased with it and it's totally worth the price. I know most probably will think Google Authenticator is fine, but give this a try for free and see what you're missing.
