Bitwarden Authenticator is a standalone app that is available for everyone, even non-Bitwarden customers.

In its current release, Bitwarden Authenticator generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) for users who want to add an extra layer of 2FA security to their logins.

There is a comprehensive roadmap planned with additional functionality.

Available for iOS and Android

OK, so one TOTP app more. What’s this one doing better than all the others like 2FAS?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Yeah, they're are a few open source TOTP apps that seem pretty interchangeable. I use Authenticator Pro because it has a Wear OS integration that is handy if you have a smart watch.

one TOTP app more

You say this as a bad thing.

Not at all, I’m just wondering if this particular one is better than any of the others.

For now: Nothing. Pretty bare metal atm.
