Description
Microsoft Authenticator — generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) and supports push notifications for Microsoft accounts.
Download or use
Available on iOS and Android app stores.
Reasoning for
Essential security layer for all important accounts. I use it alongside 1Password — 1Password for passwords, Authenticator for 2FA codes.
Alternatives considered
- Google Authenticator — simpler but less features
- Authy — multi-device sync but more complex
